The "WISH2030 Vision Conference and Sustainable Social Value Forum" was held on May 20th. Lu Jianzhong, Deputy Director of the Sustainable Management Committee of the China Management Science Society, former board member of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI BIO INC), and author of the management monograph "Sustainable Business Strategy and Practice," attended the conference to deliver a speech and serve as the host.

In his speech, Lu Jianzhong pointed out that May 20th is a day associated with love and commitment, and it is also the "Corporate Public Welfare Day" established by the "Sustainable Social Value Ecosystem" initiative. For a company, a long-term commitment similarly requires time to fulfill and actions to respond.

He stated that sustainable development is becoming a major issue for the long-term progress of human society, and sustainable business has emerged as a new pathway for corporate growth and development. The future competitiveness of enterprises will no longer be based solely on scale and efficiency but will also require long-term, composite value-creation capabilities.

"In this process, we are seeing more and more Chinese companies begin to shift from a 'growth logic' to a 'symbiosis logic,' moving from singular financial value toward the integration of commercial value, social value, and environmental value," he said.

In his view, as a leading enterprise in China's dairy industry, Yili has long been deeply committed to the field of sustainable development. Whether it is pioneering the advocacy of a "green industry chain," releasing the first "dual-carbon goals and roadmap" in China's food industry, or promoting the construction of a "sustainable social value ecosystem," Yili has consistently been exploring how a company can genuinely grow alongside society, ecology, and the future in the long term.
