They operate in such areas as information and communication technology, semiconductors, electronics, optics, machinery and specialised equipment, automobile manufacturing, medical devices, electrical equipment, shipbuilding, and the defence and aerospace industries.

Both sides agreed to continue effectively implementing the cooperation framework, including signed agreements, and to strengthen collaboration in traditional areas such as defence-security, trade-investment, science-technology, education-training, medicine, culture, and people-to-people exchanges. Additionally, they committed to expanding cooperation to potential complementary areas such as digital transformation, digital data building and connectivity, artificial intelligence, electronics, labour, agriculture, and food security.
