The organizer says it will echo the topics of the G20 Summit, including six major issues concerning financial growth, trade and investment, and infrastructure.

Yin Zonghua, with the Organizing Committee, says the business leaders have formed a draft report on policy advice for G20 leaders, "We have organized representatives from industrial and commercial circles and relevant international institutions in all-round and multi-channel discussions on major topics of the B20 since the launch of the B20 preparation work. We have drafted a B20 policy recommendation report after rounds of discussions on the basis of analyzing and summarizing the suggestions from international industrial and business communities."

The B20 was born in 2010 as a part of the G20 Summit. It invites entrepreneurs, representatives of business circles and experts from the G20 countries.

Since 2010, the B20 Summit has proposed more than 400 policy suggestions so far, most of which have been listed in the bulletins of the G20 Summit.

This year's event is expected to gather around 1,000 business leaders around the globe, making it the biggest B20 Summit ever held.
