　　過去的2021年，世紀疫情與國際變局持續交織，我國“兩個一百年”奮斗目標歷史交匯，中國與世界在激蕩中復蘇，企業和個人在磨礪中前行。

　　這一年，在中國，許多行業與企業迎接著全新的發展機遇和行業趨勢；這一年，為中國，世界500強與行業領先企業的商業領袖們變中求新、變中求進，深耕中國，攜手共進，共創未來。

　　今年的“CDF之聲”欄目邀請參會代表分享過去一年來自己與所領導的企業、所在行業的經歷以及他們的感悟。

　　今天做客“CDF之聲”的是Visa公司董事長兼首席執行官艾克禮（Alfred F． Kelly， Jr．）。

　　艾克禮首先向所有參加北京冬奧會和冬殘奧會的優秀運動員表示了祝賀。

　　艾克禮表示，Visa多年贊助奧運會、殘奧會。他非常高興能夠見證運動員在北京展現出自己的最佳水平。Visa與合作伙伴為女性小微企業家提升商業技能的培訓項目“冬奧有她”也入選了北京2022年冬奧會和冬殘奧會“城市與區域發展遺產案例“。

　　他指出，Visa植根中國發展已近40年，與各領域的合作伙伴通過數字支付技術的應用，支持中國的普惠金融、鄉村振興、人文交流等經濟社會發展目標。Visa與本地伙伴合作開展的金融教育項目，已累計惠及一千多萬中國農村居民。

　　最后，艾克禮希望Visa能與中國持續加強合作，助力經濟社會發展，繼續傳遞“一起向未來”的精神力量。

　　大家好。我是艾克禮，是Visa全球董事長兼首席執行官。很高興能夠代表Visa，與大家分享我對2022年中國發展高層論壇的展望與祝愿。

　　首先，我要向所有參加北京冬奧會和冬殘奧會的優秀運動員表示祝賀。Visa成為奧運全球TOP贊助商已超過35年，對殘奧會的支持也超過20年。我們致力于賦能畢生為之奮斗的運動員在奧運舞臺取得成功、實現夢想。今年，“Visa之隊”的中國運動員包括自由式滑雪運動員谷愛凌；花樣滑冰運動員隋文靜、韓聰；以及單板滑雪運動員紀立家。非常高興能夠見證他們在北京展現出自己的最佳水平。

　　我曾有幸多次參加中國發展高層論壇。參會的經歷寶貴且難忘。在為期三天的論壇上，來自世界各地的政商界高層代表齊聚一堂，共謀全球化之道、探討機遇和挑戰。受疫情影響，今年我們仍無法線下相聚。但通過各方對共同面臨的關鍵問題展開持續對話，論壇的主題精神將得以延續。

　　作為一家使命驅動的公司，Visa致力于打造全球網絡，成就你我，助力小微企業疫情復蘇。2020年，Visa承諾三年內支持全球5000萬家小微企業的數字化發展。我們正穩步朝著這個目標邁進。我們希望能賦能每一家企業，使他們從數字化轉型中獲益。通過Visa的全球網絡，我們希望能盡可能連接更多的商戶和消費者。

　　Visa植根中國發展已近40年。今天，我們與中國57家領先的金融機構合作，使中國的消費者可以在境外和網上便捷支付。同時，我們也幫助本地商戶受理Visa外卡產品。展望未來，我們預見中國數字商務發展的光明前景。

　　上次訪問中國時，我很榮幸親臨Visa北京創新中心的啟動儀式。通過與本地初創企業的合作，我們共同為中國市場定制創新解決方案，這也充分體現了“在中國，為中國”。Visa北京創新中心也提供了一個平臺，與我們的中國合作伙伴和中國同事，溝通分享來自全球市場的見解和實踐。

　　攜手金融、科技、電子商務等領域的合作伙伴，我們通過數字支付技術的應用，支持中國的普惠金融、鄉村振興、人文交流等經濟社會發展目標。

　　多年來，Visa與本地伙伴合作開展的金融教育項目，已累計惠及一千多萬中國農村居民，幫助他們更好地生活和工作。就在去年，Visa向論壇遞交了一篇題為“發展數字普惠，助力脫貧攻堅，推動鄉村振興”的報告。報告呈現了我們與國務院發展研究中心開展的為期兩年的研究成果。

　　除此以外，Visa還攜手中國婦女發展基金會和北京體育大學，共同推動冬奧舉辦地和京津冀區域協同發展。該項目提供了全面的商業技能培訓，支持約5000名文旅行業的女性小微企業家，提升數字能力，對接冬奧機遇。該項目入選了北京2022年冬奧會和冬殘奧會“城市與區域發展遺產案例“。

　　Visa希望能與中國持續加強合作，助力經濟社會發展。我們希望能通過今年的論壇，繼續傳遞“一起向未來”的精神力量。

　　最后，再次感謝主辦方的邀請。希望明年能夠在北京與大家見面！

　　Hello， I am Al Kelly， Chairman and CEO of Visa．

　　On behalf of our employees in China and around the world， I am pleased to share my thoughts and best wishes for the 2022 China Development Forum．

　　Let me begin by congratulating all of the talented athletes who recently competed in the Beijing Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games．  Visa has been an Olympic sponsor for more than 35 years， and a Paralympic sponsor for more than 20 years．  Our sponsorship helps to support the incredible athletes who dedicate their lives to train for the Games．  

　　This year， we were pleased to support Team Visa athletes from China including freestyle skier Eileen Gu； figure skaters Sui Wenjing and Han Cong； and para snowboarder Ji Lijia．  It was a real pleasure to watch them all compete and perform at the highest level．

　　Turning now to the China Development Forum， I have had the great honor to attend CDF in person on multiple occasions．  It is always a valuable and memorable experience – three days of gathering with senior business and government leaders from around the world to discuss how we can best address global challenges and opportunities together．  Today， while the pandemic prevents us from gathering in person， the spirit of CDF lives on through sustained dialogue about the most critical issues facing our societies．  

　　As a purpose-driven company， Visa is committed to uplifting everyone， everywhere， and helping small businesses recover from the pandemic．  In 2020， Visa committed to digitally enable 50 million small businesses globally in three years – and we are on track to meet that goal．  We want to help ensure that every business has the right tools to benefit from digital transformation， and we are on a mission to connect as many buyers and sellers as possible through our global network．  

　　Visa has operated in China for nearly 40 years．  Today， we partner with 57 of China’s leading financial institutions to help Chinese consumers shop online and outside of China． We also enable local merchants to receive payments from foreign visitors using Visa products．  Looking ahead， we see a bright future for the continued development of digital commerce in China．  

　　On my last trip to China， I had the honor of opening our Beijing Innovation Center where we work with local Chinese start-ups to create new custom solutions for the Chinese market – “In China” and “For China”． The Visa Beijing Innovation Center is also an ideal platform for sharing insights and best practices from around the world with our Chinese partners and colleagues．   

　　Working together with a range of financial， technology and ecommerce partners in China， we have also applied digital payments technology to support social imperatives such as financial inclusion， rural revitalization， and people-to-people exchange．  Over the years， Visa and our local partners have helped more than 10 million Chinese rural residents improve their lives and work through financial literacy programs． In fact， last year， Visa submitted a paper to the China Development Forum exploring the topic of how digital financial inclusion helps drive China’s poverty alleviation and rural revitalization． The report highlighted the key findings of a two-year joint research project with the Development Research Center of the State Council．

　　And this year， Visa is working in partnership with the China Women’s Development Foundation and Beijing Sport University to help advance development in the Jing-Jin-Ji region that hosted the Winter Olympics． Through the program， as many as 5，000 women-led small businesses in the culture， travel and sport sector will receive comprehensive business skills training．  They are learning how to use digital technology and preparing for business opportunities brought by the Olympics． The program was featured as one of the legacy case studies which demonstrate the lasting impact of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games Beijing 2022 throughout the region．   

　　Visa is committed to strengthening collaboration and promoting economic growth throughout China．  That is the spirit with which we approach CDF 2022， working “together for a shared future．”

　　Thank you for the opportunity to participate． I hope to be able to be with you all in person next year．
