Southeast Asia Information Port News (www.dnyxxg.com) – The China Listed Companies Overseas Development Conference, themed "Gathering Momentum for the Free Trade Port: Now is the Time to Go Global," was held on the 11th at the Hainan Ecological Software Park. More than 300 people, including executives from over 200 listed companies, representatives from domestic and international institutions, and experts from international organizations, engaged in in-depth discussions on cross-border development opportunities in twelve key industry sectors, including consumer electronics, medical devices, and fintech.
At a time when the Hainan Free Trade Port is about to implement full island-wide customs closure, this conference aimed to explore how to leverage the policy advantages of the Hainan Free Trade Port to promote overseas listings and global expansion for enterprises.
Wei Feng, Party Secretary of the China Association for Public Companies, stated in his address that the Hainan Free Trade Port, with its unique policy advantages of "zero tariffs, low tax rates, and a simplified tax system," is becoming a "strategic bridgehead" for listed companies to allocate resources globally and deeply participate in international competition. It is also poised to become a window showcasing my country's high-quality economic development and a link connecting friendly exchanges between domestic and international markets. Enterprises can leverage this policy advantage to accelerate their expansion into emerging fields such as cross-border R&D, high-end manufacturing, and offshore finance, providing strong support for their globalization journey.
Since 2025, an increasing number of companies have chosen to expand their global development space from the Hainan Free Trade Port. Statistics show that in the first 10 months of this year, Hainan Province saw 296 new companies registering for overseas investment, a year-on-year increase of 43%; actual overseas investment reached US$3.17 billion, a year-on-year increase of 42.6%.
At the meeting, the Hainan Eco-Software Park's China Enterprise Overseas Expansion Base was launched. With the vision of "based in the Free Trade Port, connecting all of China, and serving globalization," it leverages the tax policy advantages of the Hainan Free Trade Port, integrates industrial resources and authoritative platform strength, and provides full-cycle support services for companies going global.
According to reports, the base has built a full-chain service ecosystem, covering one-stop onboarding services, precise matching of the "overseas service resource pool," and green channels for government services. Leveraging its extensive capital resource network, the base collaborates with securities firms, accounting firms, and other professional institutions to provide companies with capital services such as equity financing and listing path planning; it precisely connects with major global exchanges and, combined with the Hainan Free Trade Port's convenient cross-border capital flow policies, accelerates the capitalization process for enterprises.
In addition, the base integrates national resources from the park's industrial clusters and professional institutions to build a platform for supply chain collaboration and resource matching. Leveraging its national platform advantages and Hainan's localized service capabilities, it establishes a "government-enterprise-association" collaborative mechanism to tailor overseas expansion solutions for enterprises, achieving a closed-loop solution to cross-border issues.
Eight companies covering multiple industries including new consumption, retail, healthcare, and financial investment signed agreements with the Hainan Ecological Software Park's China Enterprise Overseas Expansion Base on the same day, aiming to deepen their international market layout by utilizing the base's resources.
The 2025 China Listed Companies Overseas Industry Development Conference lasted three days. In addition to the main forum, the conference also hosted two parallel forums, "Anchoring the Capital Market: Reshaping the Strategic Logic of Enterprises' Overseas Expansion" and "The Globalization Path of Emerging Markets," as well as several closed-door activities including capital matching and policy exchanges, providing enterprises with cross-border resource matching services.
