At a State Council briefing on January 20, 2026, Wang Changlin, deputy head of the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), announced that the Chinese mainland has met its main economic and social development targets for 2025. Growth stayed steady, resilience strengthened, and policies delivered greater benefits to households.
Looking ahead, the Chinese mainland is rolling out an action plan for 2026–2030 focused on expanding domestic demand. This year, authorities will step up support for innovation by leveraging the national venture capital guidance fund, exploring the creation of a state-level mergers and acquisitions fund, and improving the deployment of government investment funds. 🚀💡
For young entrepreneurs, investors, and students, these moves signal a fertile ground for fresh ideas and startups. As the plan unfolds, keep an eye on how new funding vehicles shape the innovation landscape and open up opportunities across the Chinese mainland market.
