The ninth China International Import Expo (CIIE) opened today in Shanghai. A full-attendance exhibitor for nine consecutive years, Bayer is once again bringing together its Pharmaceuticals (including Radiology), Consumer Health and Crop Science divisions to showcase global innovations and the latest local practices in healthcare and modern agriculture. At this year's CIIE, Bayer has a dual presence at Booth A3-03 in the Medical Equipment & Healthcare Products Exhibition Area of Hall 1.1 and Booth B3-02 in the Food and Agricultural Products Exhibition Area of Hall 8.1. The company is presenting nearly 30 debuts spanning disease treatment and precision diagnostics, everyday self-care, and enhanced quality and efficiency in agriculture. Through the CIIE, Bayer is not only accelerating the introduction of global innovations to China but also helping integrate China's needs and local insights into its global R&D network, using life science innovation to connect China with the world.

Bill Anderson, chairman of the board of management of Bayer AG, remarks: "For Bayer, the CIIE is more than an exhibition. It is where people come together to exchange ideas, build partnerships, and turn innovation into real-world impact. The world faces big challenges, from improving health outcomes for growing and aging populations to producing enough food in a responsible way. No company or country can solve them alone. Progress requires openness, collaboration, and innovation. The CIIE makes that possible by bringing together partners from across industries and around the world. With more than 160 years of experience, our mission remains clear 'Health for all, Hunger for none'. We look forward to working with partners across the innovation ecosystem, and by connecting local expertise with our global capabilities we're determined to build a healthier, more resilient future. Next year will be especially meaningful as Bayer marks 145 years in China. Few companies have been part of China's development journey for that long, and it is something we are proud of, and we look forward to continuing this journey together."
