The vermilion seal falls, and the Ningbo elements are engraved with eternal imprints; More melodious and melodious, "Butterfly Lovers" interprets a thousand year romance; Celadon clear sound, secret color Song rhyme dancing with the charm of the times... The 2025 Osaka World Expo in Japan will enter the "Ningbo time".
On July 14th, the launch ceremony of the 2025 Osaka World Expo China Pavilion Zhejiang Week · Ningbo Day event (hereinafter referred to as "Ningbo Day") with the theme of "Coastal Ningbo Sails the World" was grandly held at the China Pavilion of the Osaka World Expo in Japan. In the three featured exhibition areas of the China Pavilion, elements of Ningbo's ancient and modern culture, distinctive cultural tourism, modern technology, etc. were gathered. Through various forms such as cultural performances, intangible cultural heritage interactions, urban promotion, and technology exhibitions, the cultural charm and open vitality of Ningbo as a modern coastal metropolis were showcased to global audiences.
Entering the "Ningbo Intelligent Manufacturing Chain Moving Future" industrial exhibition area, the pulse of technological innovation is overwhelming. The on-site exhibition showcased Ningbo's innovative achievements and practical examples in the fields of green energy, ocean friendliness, digital economy, etc., demonstrating the strong momentum of the city's high-quality development. In the exhibition area, Ningbo Jianfeng New Materials Company showcased the "Ocean Partner" ecological governance plan, which transforms marine waste into high value-added new materials through high-tech means, demonstrating innovative practices of circular economy. Relying on independently developed intelligent sorting and catalytic reconstruction technology, the project team can efficiently convert marine waste such as discarded fishing nets and plastic bottles into high-performance recycled materials, which are widely used in fields such as textiles, electronic consumption, and new energy.
At this World Expo, companies have transformed various technical parameters into T-shirts and electric toothbrushes that the public can touch - the circular wisdom hidden in these daily objects, allowing Japanese audiences to experience the technological innovation of "turning waste into treasure". And this cultural empowerment is immediate: as the only industrial representative of Ningbo this time, Jianfeng ® Signed a memorandum of cooperation with Japan's Toray Corporation and also received cross-border cooperation intentions from public welfare organizations and brand owners.
Technology speaks logically, culture connects people's hearts, "Ma Yiming frankly stated. When environmental protection concepts meet cultural inheritance, not only does the customer list become longer, but the characteristics of Ningbo's" ocean city "also go further with these collaborations.
As a technology-based enterprise, Jianfeng ® The innovation path is highly compatible with Ningbo's strategy of building a global capital of intelligent manufacturing and innovation. ”The "Ocean Partners" project is a microcosm of Ningbo's implementation of the "dual carbon" goal. Its technological breakthroughs not only solve the pain points of marine pollution, but also build a closed-loop industrial chain of "resources products renewable resources".
This exhibition is the first themed day event named after a city for the China Pavilion at the Osaka World Expo, and it is also the first time that Ningbo enterprises have appeared as guests of honor at top international exhibitions. Participating in the World Expo is not only a showcase of technology, but also a responsibility for Ningbo enterprises to participate in global governance. Jianfeng ® The 'Ocean Partners' have taken this opportunity to showcase the innovative vitality of Chinese private enterprises in the field of new materials to the world, providing practical examples for China Japan and multilateral environmental cooperation.
It is worth mentioning that the Osaka Kansai World Expo attaches great importance to ocean protection. One of the key exhibition halls, the Blue Ocean Dome (BOD), aims to raise public awareness of ocean plastic pollution. The exhibition hall encourages people to reflect on how we use and manage materials, emphasizes the responsibility of humanity in sustainable choices, and explores the possibilities of architectural innovation.
During the six-month opening period of the China Pavilion, various provinces and municipalities directly under the central government will hold their own events, but there are not many places where events are held at the "city level". For this reason, Mitsuaki Nagano, Executive Director of the International Bureau of the Japan International Exposition Association in 2025, specifically mentioned, "I feel the power of Ningbo City and consider it a great honor
