Global Talent Summit 2025: A report on quality and flow of talent in international market released
June 27 , 2025
A report on the quality and the flow of global talent in the international market has been released at the Global Talent Summit 2025. The event has brought together hundreds of delegates from across the globe worldwide to discuss how talent could contribute to cope with uncertainties globally. Our reporter You Yang has more.
As the first event of its kind, the Global Talent Summit focuses on topics such as “Enhancing Beijing’s Exchanges with Foreign Countries” and “Upgrading Talent Development in the AI Era.”
One of the key highlights of the event was the release of a report titled Global Talent Flow: Trends and Prospects.
The report noted that, in terms of overall talent competitiveness, the United States continues to rank first, followed by South Korea, Sweden, and Japan. China holds the fifth position.
However, with the U.S. taking the “American First” policy in recent years, some talent has moved to the European continent instead.
The report also noted that in recent years, China has adopted a series of more active, open and efficient policies to attract more talent to the nation.
A document released by Stanford University last year reported that since 2018, the number of scientists of Chinese origin leaving the United States has increased by 75 percent, with two-thirds returning to China.
YOU YANG Beijing “Experts say that amid growing uncertainties in the international community, it is more important than ever to strengthen the global flow of talent, while also enhancing cultural and people-to-people exchanges. You Yang, CGTN, Beijing.”
