As the bustling city of Beijing hosted the China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) 2024, young minds from around the world gathered to witness the latest in global services. Among them was Betizhe Osmanova Akova, a Bulgarian student representing the voice of Gen Z.
Betizhe took a deep dive into the Bulgarian exhibition area, eager to explore the innovations her home country brought to the international stage. “It’s incredible to see how Bulgaria is contributing to global services,” she remarked. “From technology to culture, there’s so much to share.”
Her exploration didn’t stop there. Wandering through the vast halls of the China National Convention Center and the vibrant spaces of Shougang Park, Betizhe experienced firsthand the fair’s theme of “global services for mutual benefits.” She interacted with peers from different nations, exchanging ideas and forging new connections.
“CIFTIS 2024 is not just an event; it’s a platform for young people like me to understand the world better,” Betizhe shared. “It’s about collaboration, learning, and shaping a future where services bring us closer together.”
As the fair concluded, the impact on young attendees like Betizhe was palpable. Their experiences at CIFTIS 2024 highlight the importance of youth engagement in global events, fostering a generation ready to lead with openness and shared understanding.
