CGTN: President Xi meets private entrepreneurs, injecting confidence into private sector
CGTN published an article on a symposium on private enterprises, where Chinese President Xi Jinping delivered a keynote speech after listening to representatives of private entrepreneurs. The article underscores the country’s unswerving support for the private sector and showcases the sector’s pivotal role in driving China’s innovation endeavors.
A highly anticipated symposium on private enterprises was held in Beijing on Monday, where Chinese President Xi Jinping delivered a keynote speech after listening to representatives of private entrepreneurs, including Huawei’s Ren Zhengfei, BYD’s Wang Chuanfu, New Hope’s Liu Yonghao, Will Semiconductor’s Yu Renrong, Unitree Robotics’ Wang Xingxing and Xiaomi’s Lei Jun.
The private sector enjoys broad prospects and great potential on the new journey in the new era. It is a prime time for private enterprises and entrepreneurs to give full play to their capabilities, President Xi said.
Unswerving support
During the symposium, President Xi reiterated his unwavering commitment to the private sector, stressing the fundamental policies for the development of the private economy have been incorporated into the national institutional system and that “this cannot and will not change.”
Xi urged resolutely dismantling obstacles that prevent enterprises from accessing production factors equally and competing in the market fairly, further opening the competitive areas of infrastructure to various business entities in a fair manner, and continuously making solid efforts to address the difficulties faced by private enterprises in obtaining affordable financing.
He also stressed the effective protection of the lawful rights and interests of private enterprises and entrepreneurs in accordance with the law.
China has set up a bureau under the country’s top economic planner, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), specializing in promoting the private economy’s development.
During the Central Economic Work Conference held in December, Chinese policymakers also emphasized the support for private enterprises when mapping out the economic work for 2025. Key measures include enacting a law to promote the private sector, launching a campaign to standardize law enforcement involving enterprises and establishing guidelines for building a unified national market.
The NDRC on Tuesday pledged to further remove market access barriers and revise the market access negative list for private enterprises in a timely manner, aiming to encourage greater private sector participation in major national projects and programs.
High-quality development
President Xi also stressed the role of private enterprises in advancing China’s broader goals in terms of technological innovation, promoting rural vitalization and improving people’s well-being.
He urged entrepreneurs to focus on high-quality development, invest in their main businesses, strengthen their capacities for innovation and increase their core competitiveness.
Foreign media outlets have taken note of the high proportion of participation of tech giants like Huawei, BYD and Unitree Robotics at the symposium.
The private sector plays a pivotal role in driving China’s innovation endeavors, accounting for more than 92 percent of its high-tech enterprises.
The sector also accounts for over 70 percent of China’s technological innovation achievements. Among the country’s “little giant” firms – a term representing the novel elites of small and medium-sized enterprises that specialize in a niche market, boast cutting-edge technologies and show great potential – the proportion of private businesses has surpassed 80 percent.
From the “new trio” driving global green transformation and e-commerce that benefits users worldwide to the viral success of DeepSeek and robotics, as well as the international acclaim for “Black Myth: Wukong” and “Ne Zha 2,” Chinese private enterprises, with their technology and innovation, have pushed the country ahead in the global market.

Dr. Katie Zippel Unveils Pioneering Research on Social Prescribing for Cancer Care
NSW, Australia, 3rd May 2025 – Dr. Katie Zippel, a respected general practitioner and DPhil candidate at Oxford University, has introduced pioneering research that sheds light on the role of social prescribing in cancer care. Her latest study, soon to be published in a leading peer-reviewed journal, highlights how non-medical interventions can significantly enhance the well-being and long-term health outcomes of individuals living with cancer.
With both professional expertise and personal experience as a breast cancer survivor, Dr. Zippel brings a unique perspective to this research. Her study explores how integrating social support systems, lifestyle medicine, and community-driven initiatives into primary healthcare can improve the overall survivorship experience for cancer patients.
Social prescribing is a revolutionary healthcare approach that enables medical professionals to refer patients to non-medical services that support mental, emotional, and physical well-being. These services include arts-based therapies, exercise programmes, gardening projects, and community-based support groups.

Dr. Zippel’s research emphasizes that cancer treatment should go beyond conventional medicine and include holistic interventions that help patients cope with the psychological and social challenges that come with a cancer diagnosis. Her study presents strong evidence that structured social prescribing programmes significantly reduce stress, enhance emotional resilience, and improve overall quality of life.
Key Findings from the Research
Dr. Zippel’s study explores the tangible benefits of social prescribing by analysing patient experiences across various healthcare settings, including hospitals and community clinics. The research identifies several key findings that underscore the impact of these programmes:
- Improved Mental Health: Patients engaged in social prescribing activities reported a 40% decrease in anxiety and depression symptoms compared to those receiving conventional treatment alone.
- Stronger Social Connections: Over 70% of participants noted significant improvements in social engagement, reducing their sense of isolation.
- Enhanced Physical Well-being: Patients who participated in prescribed exercise programmes experienced increased mobility, better energy levels, and overall improved health.
- Better Treatment Adherence: Patients involved in non-medical support activities demonstrated greater commitment to their medical treatments and healthier lifestyle choices.
- Long-Term Health Benefits: Individuals participating in social prescribing programmes were more likely to maintain a healthier lifestyle post-treatment, reducing the risk of cancer recurrence.
Bridging the Gap Between Medicine and Community Support
One of the core messages of Dr. Zippel’s research is the importance of bridging clinical medicine with community-based support systems. While medical treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation are essential in combating cancer, addressing the social determinants of health—such as loneliness, mental well-being, and financial stress—can play an equally crucial role in recovery.
A key innovation within Dr. Zippel’s work is her focus on narrative medicine, an approach that utilises storytelling to foster understanding, connection, and empowerment among cancer patients. By encouraging patients to share their experiences, she is helping create a more compassionate and patient-centred healthcare model.
A Global Call for Change in Cancer Survivorship Care
The findings from Dr. Zippel’s research have far-reaching implications for healthcare policies worldwide. As medical systems search for sustainable ways to improve cancer survivorship care, her work provides strong evidence supporting the expansion of social prescribing initiatives.
Going forward, Dr. Zippel aims to collaborate with global healthcare providers and policymakers to integrate social prescribing into mainstream medical practices, ensuring more patients have access to holistic, community-driven care.
A Personal Mission for Healthcare Innovation
For Dr. Zippel, this research is more than an academic pursuit—it is a deeply personal mission. As a breast cancer survivor, she understands firsthand the challenges of navigating treatment and recovery. Her lived experience has inspired her dedication to advancing equitable healthcare solutions, particularly for underserved and rural communities.
Beyond research, Dr. Zippel is actively engaged in primary healthcare delivery as part of a multidisciplinary team. Her work spans rural general practice, mental health support, and public health research, all aimed at bridging clinical medicine with social support systems to improve patient outcomes.
A Vision for Holistic Wellness
Through her online platform and research initiatives, Dr. Zippel explores the connection between daily habits, community engagement, and overall health. She shares insights on lifestyle medicine, disease prevention, and the power of human connection in healthcare. Her blog serves as an educational hub, featuring personal narratives, health education posts, and evidence-based research from leading medical journals.
To further her mission, Dr. Zippel plans to introduce video content and interactive discussions, allowing patients and healthcare professionals to engage with her research more directly. By blending storytelling with science, she hopes to make medical knowledge more accessible and relatable.
Join the Movement: Advocating for Social Prescribing
Dr. Katie Zippel’s groundbreaking research is leading a global shift in how cancer care is approached. She urges healthcare professionals, policymakers, and researchers to recognise the transformative impact of social prescribing in improving cancer survivorship.
By advocating for these innovative, community-centred healthcare solutions, Dr. Zippel is setting the stage for a future where cancer care is not only about medical treatment but also about fostering holistic healing and support networks that prioritise the well-being of every patient.
