Strategic Speech

At this new milestone marking 25 years of growth, Zheng Like, Chairman of Akan Enterprise Group, stated that the company has entered a fundamentally new developmental paradigm. The traditional growth model, driven primarily by scale and speed, is being replaced. Going forward, competition will center on strategic foresight, innovation capacity, and methods of value creation. Enterprises must proactively transcend conventional frameworks and redefine the future with renewed vision.

Sustainable growth, he stressed, originates from consistent value accumulation. From a long-term perspective, he proposed a forward-looking growth pathway: deepening core values to foster endogenous growth; expanding symbiotic value to unlock new domains; anchoring long-term value to strengthen the foundation for sustained development; and creating profound, lasting positive impact for customers, partners, and society alike.
