The speaker line-up was impressive, with some of most renown academicians and experts from the field in the auditorium. The meeting involved delegates from across the nation, as well as visiting international experts. For example, among the speakers were Gong Xianyi, Member of Chinese Academy of Engineering, Zhejiang University; Wu Lixin, Member of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Ocean University of China; Jiao Nianzhi, Member of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Xiamen University and Zhang Si, Member of Chinese Academy of Engineering, South China Sea Institute of Oceanology (SCSIO) in the third conference last year.
The 4th China Ocean Technology Conference and the newly launched OceanTech International Symposium will now form part of an umbrella program -- OceanTech Program (OT 2019) -- that unfurls into an exhibition, co-located conferences, technical seminars, workshops, and live demonstrations. A guided tour will also be hosted for international delegates to visit some of the most important ocean facilities in Zhoushan. Talent Club will also be launched to serve career development for China’s rising stars.
Ocean College owns advanced research facilities, and, counting some to be completed, include:
The Committee of Ocean Technology System (OTS), based at Ocean College, Zhejiang University, was established in 2017 in Zhoushan. The formation of OTS was initiated by the Zhejiang University community and approved by the Chinese Society of Oceanography. OTS’ primary objective is to help fulfill China’s initiatives for strengthening its oceanic capabilities.
OTS’ scope covers the technology and equipment employed in the studies of ocean sciences, marine resource exploitation, environmental protection and national security assurance.
OTS’ roles include organizing academic seminars, conducting internationally collaborated projects and optimizing available resources by substantiating, assessing, awarding and promoting innovative programs to foster ocean technology development.
As a national platform for the marine disciplines, OTS supports domestic innovation by establishing systematic R&D and manufacturing channels. Additionally, OTS works with experts in the ocean technology equipment community to create demand to accelerate the scientific, technological and commercial advancements of this sector.
OTS advocates for expanding education and training for the industry, and provides advice on national strategies, policies and decisions to support the development of new technology clusters and commercializing ocean technology innovations.

Together Expo embraces its role to engage its customers in the latest Belt and Road Initiatives, spear headed by the Chinese Government, which call for integrating the region into a cohesive economic area through building infrastructure, tighter exchanges and broader trade that reach beyond the historical Silk Road to the Belt – South Asia and Southeast Asia.
Since its incorporation in 1992, Together has organized shows for an array of industries including geology, agriculture, automobile, coal and mining, communications, construction, engineering, environment, fire, foods, furniture, health care, jewelry, logistics & transportation, optics & semi-conductors, real estate, retail, sports, wood – wherever more sophisticated technology is needed to modernize China’s own industries. As China emerged as the World Factory, energy and resources became the focus of the country’s growth, Together consolidated its resources into the energy fields to organize Asia’s largest coal & mining show and China’s only national scale geology show, both in the capital Beijing. As China emerged as a global investor and cross-border venturer, road-mapping its One Belt, One Road policies, Together captured the change, and has now entered into the ocean that connects all the continents of the world.
