Cutting-edge exhibits, including AI glasses, drones, and advanced materials, are gaining significant attention at the 2025 China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) in Beijing.
The event opened in Beijing on Wednesday under the theme of "Embrace Intelligent Technologies, Empower Trade in Services".
It opened to the public on Saturday. Impressive large-scale exhibits, along with immersive experiences created by artificial intelligence and virtual reality, provided unique experience for the visitors.
"In terms of AI technology, especially with smart infrastructure, I can really feel how much things have advanced in the past few years," said a visitor.
"It's very impressive, it's mind-blowing, I've been to the flight, for the drones -- that's really good, because I feel it's something that a lot of countries can also adapt," said another visitor.
A series of innovative products and technologies were showcased at the fair.
In the exhibition area, there are AI glasses that can recognize food calories and offer suggestions, new ice and snow materials that never melt, and advanced spatial tracking technology that creates a realistic theme park experience in the virtual world.
During the event, more than 110 companies introduced over 190 new products and innovations, with over 100 of them being debut releases. These innovations span various fields, including health, culture, tourism, and sports, creating new service consumption models and scenarios, while also providing new business opportunities for exhibitors from different countries.
"We already spoke to some individual clients that would like to visit our country and also to represent travel agencies that would like to cooperate. That is really great for us," said an exhibitor from Slovakia.

The "soft landing" of the China-EU electric vehicle case will greatly boost market confidence and inject new momentum into China-EU cooperation in automobile trade and investment, a spokeswoman of the Ministry of Commerce (MOC) said at a press briefing in Beijing on Thursday.
He Yongqian, the spokeswoman, made the remarks after China and the European Union (EU) agreed on the necessity of providing general guidance on price undertakings for Chinese companies exporting battery electric vehicle (BEV) passenger cars to the EU.
"China and the EU simultaneously announced on Monday that they had achieved positive outcomes following multiple rounds of consultations on the EV case, a development that has drawn wide attention at home and abroad. Industry players from both sides have 'highly welcomed and fully endorsed' the outcome, saying the 'soft landing' of the case is expected to greatly boost market confidence and inject new momentum into China-EU cooperation in automobile trade and investment. Some EU politicians have described it as a positive step toward building a sustainable China-EU trade relationship, and said it demonstrated that resolving trade differences through partnership remains feasible," she said.
"Against the current international backdrop, China and the EU, acting in a spirit of mutual respect and within the framework of WTO rules, have properly addressed the EV case, which is of significant positive importance. The outcome will not only contribute to the sound development of China-EU economic and trade ties and help safeguard the stability of the global automotive industrial and supply chains, but will also send a clear and strong signal that both sides are willing to uphold a rules-based international trading order, setting a good example for countries to resolve differences through dialogue and consultation and injecting greater certainty and positive energy into global economic growth," she said.
"China appreciates the spirit of dialogue showed by the EU side and stands ready to work with the EU, building on the current positive outcomes, to further implement the consensus reached by the leaders of the two sides, maintain dialogue and communication, and support stable industrial and supply chains on both sides, continue to deepen cooperation on the basis of market principles, and make active contributions to the global green transition," she added.
