The Belt and Road Initiative and Shanghai FTZ have encouraged local entrepreneurs to do business overseas and are becoming more competitive, said Shang.


Enterprises from Shanghai signed contracts with partners in the Belt and Road region worth 8.9 billion U.S. dollars last year, up 66.5 percent over the previous year.


Some have built partnerships with economic and trade departments and leading cities in 14 Belt and Road countries including Singapore, the Czech Republic and Turkey.
