This year, the Communist Party of China is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its founding. Vision China held its latest edition in Jiaxing, East China's Zhejiang province, the birthplace of "red boat spirit".

In 1921, the First CPC National Congress was concluded on that famous red boat on Nanhu Lake in the city of Jiaxing.

The boat has since become an iconic symbol in the history of the Party. And the "red boat spirit" has strongly influenced the development of Zhejiang, an economic powerhouse that has evolved into a cradle of scientific and technological innovation.

Themed "Long March from Red Boat", the event invited international opinion leaders and scholars to discuss their views about the CPC and Party members.

Launched in 2018 by China Daily, Vision China invites political, business and academic speakers to tell China's story from a global perspective and discuss major China-related topics of international interest. Previous to this event, talks have been held 19 times in places like Beijing, New York and London.
