Guo Yuming, Level I Counselor of Hebei Provincial Department of Science and Technology, led the Hebei Delegation to attend the CIEP. A total of more than 200 people attended the CIEP, including the leaders of science and technology (foreign experts affairs) sectors at the provincial, municipal and county levels in Hebei Province, and the leaders of the academician workstations, the workstations for bringing in talents and intellectual resources, and the institutions that implement key programs for bringing in talents and intellectual resources. 

The Hebei exhibition area set up multiple sectors, including “Leaders’ Care and Support”, “Introduction to the Work of Foreign Experts Affairs in Hebei”, and “Bringing in Talents and Intellectual Resources to Help Enterprises”, and comprehensively showcased key contents such as Hebei Province's introduction of high-caliber talents, highlights of the work for bringing in talents and intellectual resources, services and policies for attracting talents from overseas, and effectively publicized Hebei Province's achievements in bringing in talents and intellectual resources, which was fully recognized by the Ministry of Science and Technology of People's Republic of China (State Administration of Foreign Experts Affairs). In particular, the sector of “Bringing in Talents and Intellectual Resources to Help Enterprises” published 310 talent and project needs in Hebei Province, covering various fields such as artificial intelligence, biomedicine, modern agriculture, education technology, health care, new energy, and new materials, which attracted more than 3,000 people to engage in consultations on the spot and enabled 23 domestic and foreign agencies to sign contracts and reach cooperation on the spot. During CIEP, Shijiazhuang and other cities announced and signed contracts for special programs; the People's Government of Xindu District, Xingtai City, the Hebei Shenghao Photoelectric Technology Co., Ltd., the Cangzhou Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences, Xingtai University and other entities signed 31 cooperation agreements and 107 programs for bringing in foreign talents.
