The 8th CIIE Innovation Incubation Special Section (CIIE-NOVA), themed "In China, Dive into New Arenas," focuses on three core elements-technology, capital, and market-to foster an open, diversified, and sustainable innovation ecosystem. It provides global startups and talents with sci-tech resources and collaboration opportunities to tap into the Chinese market.

The section will bring together the founders of numerous startups, each with deep expertise and unique entrepreneurial experiences. They are the driving force behind turning their projects from concept into reality. Behind every founder lies a spark of inspiration and a groundbreaking idea. This article offers a first look into the stories of founders of six startups, exploring how they seize opportunities and turn cutting-edge ideas into practice. (Presented in no particular order.)
