The first summit and exhibition will be held in China in 2019.

The Sino-US Food Entrepreneurs High-End Summit and Sino-US Joint Food Exhibition will be held in rotation and will be held in the United States in 2020. This is a large-scale comprehensive summit and exhibition for food industry jointly sponsored for the first time by think tank institutions, chambers of commerce and media organizations of China and the United States. Through the deep dialogue and communication between food entrepreneurs, to get the goal of mutual understanding, respect, benefit and win-win. According to the plan, representatives of nearly 1,000 foreign and commercial and industrial organizations such as the Sino-US diplomatic institutions, food science and research institutions, food processing and production companies, food distribution companies, food machinery manufacturers, and agricultural enterprises will participate in the exhibition.

The Sino-US Food Entrepreneurs High-End Summit and Sino-US Joint Food Exhibition Organizing Committee were established at the same time. Baoyin Cao (Executive Director of the China Food Brand Research Institute) served as Director of the Organizing Committee. Jason Quin (Executive Chairman of the American Chamber of International Commerce) and Laimin Zhang (Chief Editor of the Sino US Times), served as Vice Presidents and Zhixiang Luo (Deputy Director of China Food Brand Research Institute) served as Secretary General.

According to the introduction from Baoyin Cao (director of the organizing committee), on May 19, 2018 (US local time), China and the United States issued a joint statement on bilateral economic and trade consultations in Washington, and both sides took effective measures to substantially reduce the trade deficit between the United States and China. A consensus was reached and the round of "constructive consultations" was put to a close. In the future, China and the United States will strengthen trade cooperation in the fields such as energy, agricultural products, medical care, high-tech products, and finance. At this point, China and the United States have avoided the worst-case scenario, and deep-level bilateral economic and trade cooperation has officially kicked off. In this context, US food entrepreneurs, agricultural entrepreneurs and their products have entered China also as the same of China, and this has become an imperative business opportunity with huge potential.
