Manifesto

The civilian CIIE, built by founders — for founders who refuse to stay local.

GO Summit is where China's best operators meet the world's sharpest capital, talent and channels. Every month, in a different city, around a different flagship event — one conference day, one on-the-ground tour day. No fluff. No lanyards-as-vanity. Just the conversations that move companies across oceans.

AI · Hardware · New Energy · Embodied Intelligence · Advanced Manufacturing. If you're shipping from Shenzhen to Dubai, from Hangzhou to Helsinki — this is your home tour.

The 2026

Two days.
One arc.

Every stop follows the same rhythm:
a conference day that says what's next,
a tour day that shows you how.

The most honest room I've been in all year. No performative demos — just operators trading real playbooks on how they got into the Middle East. FounderAI hardware · Series A · Shenzhen
I flew in for 48 hours and left with two co-investors and a distribution partner in Dubai. That's never happened at a conference. PartnerGlobal VC · Singapore
