　　On September 21, Kevin Xu was invited to take a special CEO interview at the New York headquarters of Fortune magazine. He shared insights on entrepreneurship's mission, strategy, intellectual prowess, and leadership. As Co-Chair of the APEC 2023 Host Committee, he advocated harnessing the power of youth, amplifying their voices, and channeling their voices to more valuable platforms. Youth leadership, in particular, had been an area that Kevin Xu paid special attention to in recent years. In the coming year, how to address crises while ensuring a balance between corporate profitability and empathetic leadership would be a crucial topic. The Fortune CEO Initiative Annual Meeting 2023 would address these issues.

　　The Fortune CEO Initiative Annual Meeting 2023 would delve into the following topics, including how to maintain a focus on societal outcomes and manage profits in challenging economic environments, the transformative impact of generative artificial intelligence on business dynamics, strategies for minimizing waste and enhancing biodiversity, and how to coordinate business, government, and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) matters.
