The 15th Annual Meeting of the New Champions, also known as the Summer Davos, opened on Tuesday in the coastal city of Dalian in Northeast China's Liaoning province.

Over 1,700 representatives of the political, business, academic and media communities from more than 100 countries and regions are attending the three-day meeting.

Though there are diverse views on the "Next Frontiers for Growth," the theme of the 15th Annual Meeting of the New Champions, there is consensus that cooperation is paramount to successfully navigating the rapidly evolving world.
