自2003年起，不同资历与规模的环球企业，每年齐聚新加坡，互相交流，寻找发展业务所需。他们在“环球企都@新加坡”（Global Entrepolis）上寻找资本、市场、科技或商业伙伴。这个平台强调创新与创意价值。去年，我们看到40多个国家的16000多名出席者，在这个环球市场平台上发掘新机会。 　　今年，新加坡也主办了第一届艺术双年展。而在同一时期，中国在上海、韩国在光州，也分别举行了双年展。40多个国家的艺术家在这三个亚洲国家展现了他们的创意作品。先锋当代艺术由传统及现代化的色彩与格调互相辉映。最具意义的是，三个双年展决定进一步延伸彼此的影响力，跨越国界齐聚新加坡，在环球环境下巩固和强调亚洲特色的力量。这是艺术环球化的一个独特层面。 　　这两项活动的共同点是通过多样性而取得的活力，以及通过环球联系所取得的多样性。艺术家和企业家一样，希望能够通过创意与创新做到独树一帜。他们发挥环球级的潜能与追求环球性的认可。 　　艺术是一种表达语言。商业是一种创意的表达。伟大的艺术家背后都有一股推动力，促成一种强烈欲望，想要以环球认可的语言来沟通和创造。没有胸怀全球的企业家，就不会有理想的资源结合，为顾客提供无懈可击的方案。我们应该珍惜像程亚杰这样的创意人才，他们能够认识到吸取国际经验的重要性是作为设计环球语言的基础。他们设定环球水平来提升艺术资量。他们是促使社会与经济卓越发展的推动力。 　　为这样的创意人才提供平台，以面向环球观众，重要性相等于为商界创造有利环境，以获取环球市场机会。毕竟，历史已经告诉我们，伟大的文明像文艺复兴经常都是艺术活动和科学与技术发展互辅相承的结果。 我们希望这基于环球展望的合作, 有助把环球企都和双年展建成可让创意能源可表演的更大的舞台。 　　　　　　环球企都@新加坡筹委会主席、经济发展局副局长 蔡特鑫 　　A Global Theatre for Creative Energy 　　The significance of Artist Cheng Yajie Exhibition held in conjunction with Asian Biennale Forum @ Global Entrepolis 　　Since 2003, enterprises, regardless of their age and size, from all over he world converge　annually into the Global Entrepolis @ Singapore to interact with each other, to seek what they need to advance their businesses. They look for capitals, markets, technologies, or business partners. The platform emphasise innovation and value creation. Last year, we saw more than 14,000 participants from more than 60 countries exploring opportunities in this global market place. 　　This year, Singapore also hosts its first art biennale, and within the same period China has hers in Shanghai and Korea in Gwangju. Artists from over 40 countries showcase their creations in the three Asian countries. 　　 　　Artworks,avant garde or contemporary, shine with colour and tone of traditions and modernisms. What is significant is that the three biennales decided to further their influences across borders by meeting in Singapore, consolidating and contrasting the strengths of Asian characters vis-a-vis global textures. This is a unique dimension of globalisation of art. 　　What is common in these two events is the vibrancy achieved through diversity, and diversity achieved through global connectivity. Artists are like entrepreneurs, who seek to differentiate themselves though creativity and innovativeness. They pursue global reach and recognition. 　　Art is a language of expression. Business is an expression of creativity. Great artists are motivated by the strong desire to creating and communicate a globally recognised language. Without globally minded entrepreneurs, there will be no optimal combinations of resources to provide seamless solutions to customers. We should value creative talents like Cheng Yajie who see the importance of international exposures as foundation for designing global language, and set the global benchmark for better quality of art. They are the driving force for the society and economy. 　　Offering a stage for such creative talents to reach out to global viewers are of no less importance than offering a conducive environment for businesses to access global market opportunities. After all, history has shown that great civilisations, as in renaissance art period, are the synergistic outcomes of the interaction between art activities and scientific or technological developments. Adopting a global perspective, we hope our combined effort would help pay way for enlarging platforms for creative talents to perform and creative energy to flourish. 　　　　Chairman, Organising Committee of Global Entrepolis @ Singapore　Chua Taik Him
