The inauguration was attended by a host of dignitaries, including Huang Xiangyue, Party chief of Nanshan District, district mayor Li Xiaoning, and other key officials from the district and municipal government, underscoring the significance of the initiative.

Huang outlined the rationale behind the establishment of the center, emphasizing the district’s commitment to implementing national policies and addressing the growing needs of enterprises. He highlighted the center’s mission to create a market-oriented, law-based, and internationalized cooperative community, aimed at expanding trade networks and enhancing investment appeal.

The "Go Global" center aims to offer precise and cost-effective services for businesses, and to provide a one-stop solution for enterprises, facilitating seamless network linkage and comprehensive support. The center’s dual focus is on aiding Chinese enterprises in their international expansion and offering a suite of services, including registration guidance and policy interpretation, to foreign enterprises entering the Chinese market.

The event featured keynote speeches from industry experts, insights from “going global” enterprises, and the presentation of licenses to key institutions. Notably, Dun & Bradstreet introduced a panoramic heatmap, offering a visual representation of Chinese enterprises’ global outreach.

It is positioned as a comprehensive international service platform, leveraging government guidance, enterprise collaboration, and platform services to offer holistic support. It aspires to become the international headquarters base for Chinese companies and a welcoming service window for foreign businesses.

The center has attracted a array of professional service institutions and global resources, partnering with renowned entities such as the Dun & Bradstreet Group for business information services, and King & Wood Mallesons and Southwest University of Political Science and Law for legal expertise, and international platforms like Kickstarter for market expansion services.
