Data resources have emerged as the foundational resource, a vital productive force, and a crucial production element in the digital economy era, catalyzing transformations in socio-economic structures and fueling the rapid evolution of new forms of productivity. As a novel production factor, data resources form the bedrock of digitalization, networking, and intelligence, rapidly integrating into every aspect of production, distribution, circulation, consumption, and social service management. This integration is fundamentally reshaping production modes, lifestyles, and models of social governance. To establish a robust framework for data element fundamentals and fully leverage the role of data elements, the 2024 Global Digital Economy Conference will host the "China Data Element 50 Forum."

This forum aims to provide a platform for exploring and constructing the ecosystem of the data element market, focusing on the fundamental principles of data property rights, transaction circulation, profit distribution, and security governance. It seeks to balance the development and security of the data element market, uncover and stimulate the value of data resources as an elemental factor, and propel the advancement of new forms of productivity.
