The summit closed, but its legacy is now a Hangzhou inheritance, elevating the city's global reputation; it enables local companies to be more confident when "going global"; it stimulates Zhejiang people's passion and momentum for a better future; and, even more far-reaching, it pushes the city to keep improving to meet global expectations.

At 1 am on Sept 6, when the Chinese and international reporters walked by the media center's big screen, they all took out their phones and took pictures of themselves against the blue backdrop of the summit, capturing beautiful Hangzhou as a permanent memory.
