According to Reuters news agency, on February 14, Chinese President Xi Jinping shared that he plans to chair a symposium to promote the motivation of private enterprises in China next week.

The symposium will address challenges facing Chinese companies, from escalating tensions with the US under President Donald Trump to slowing growth in the domestic economy .

Mr. Xi's actions show the great concern of the Chinese government for private enterprises in this country.

The conference was attended by domestic business leaders, especially billionaire Jack Ma - founder of Alibaba.

The return of billionaire Jack Ma - who faced government opposition and largely disappeared from public view for years since 2020 - at this conference could create new confidence in the business community.

This is a signal that the government is looking to ease regulations and create opportunities for private businesses to grow.

Many entrepreneurs from the technology sector are encouraged by Mr. Tap to expand their businesses at home and abroad in the context of the escalating US-China technology war.

Besides billionaire Jack Ma, CEO of tech giant Tencent - Mr. Pony Ma is also expected to be present.

Reuters sources said that Lei Jun, chief executive of Xiaomi's manufacturing arm, and Wang Xingxing, founder of robot company Yushu Technology, are likely to attend.

After news of the symposium was announced, Hong Kong-listed shares of Alibaba, Tencent and Xiaomi rose sharply in the afternoon trading session on February 14.

Xiaomi shares are at a record high, up 7%, Tencent is also higher by 7% and Alibaba is up 6%.
