The 2026 Strait (Fuzhou) Fisheries Week was held in Fuzhou City, east China's Fujian Province from Friday to Tuesday, showcasing fishery-related achievements in cross-Strait cooperation.
The event provided diverse exchange and display platforms, featuring 23 special activities, with guests from both sides of the Taiwan Strait brought together to explore topics including fisheries and tourism, fish seed industry innovation, and ecological protection.
Taiwan firms attending the event expressed their desire to further explore opportunities on the mainland.
"Recently, the mainland has introduced some preferential policies for Taiwan, which are very good for our business development. We hope to combine Taiwan's aquaculture technology and experience with the mainland's market," said Wu Cheng-hai, deputy general manager of Oriental Aquavalley.
"Taiwan may be somewhat more advanced in deep processing or in boutique aquaculture, but the mainland has vast aquaculture bases and a large pool of talent. I believe there is vast space for cooperation between the two sides in this area," said Huang Guoliang, founder of Apollo Aquatic Product.

This year's Summer Davos will be the largest yet, with more than 2,000 participants from over 90 countries and regions, the World Economic Forum said Tuesday at a pre-event press conference in Beijing.
Organizers unveiled the program for the Annual Meeting of the New Champions, set for June 23 to 25 in Dalian, northeast China's Liaoning Province.
Under the theme "Innovating at Scale," the Forum will bring together leaders from business, government, and academia. Against a rapidly shifting global landscape, policymakers and business leaders will discuss critical issues, from economic resilience and artificial intelligence(AI) to sustainable development.
Dalian Mayor Li Qiang said the city will use the forum as a strategic platform to raise its global profile.
"We expect this forum to drive a qualitative transformation for Dalian. Our hope is that scaled innovation becomes a new engine of urban development, helping spread new quality productive forces from small breakthroughs to broader impact. We also aim to leverage global wisdom gathered here to turn technological breakthroughs into large-scale industrial advantages, and push industries toward higher-end, smarter, and greener development. We expect this forum to act as a super connector, achieving precise aggregation and implementation of global high-end resources. For Dalian, this forum is not only a key window to connect with the world, but also a golden platform to attract investment and land projects," said Li.
