2. Investment Promotion & Resource/Talent Introduction: As a core function, SPECPA conducts investment promotion for governments at all levels and introduces technologies, projects, resources, and talents.

3. Exhibition & Consultation Services: SPECPA organizes exhibitions and trade fairs independently or in partnership with other entities, and provides consulting services to enterprises and government departments.

4. Study Tours & Training Programs: SPECPA arranges study tours and training programs to enhance understanding and communication among enterprises and departments.

6. International Collaboration: SPECPA collaborates with institutions at provincial, municipal, and district levels in Sichuan, as well as with embassies, consulates, and foreign offices in China and Chengdu.

Over three decades, SPECPA has executed extensive economic cooperation initiatives, including hundreds of exhibitions, dozens of exchange forums, investment promotion events, training sessions, and resource-matching activities for thousands of enterprises. Its efforts have earned recognition from enterprises and governments at all levels, and its events have been widely covered by media.

Following a new leadership election in July 2024, SPECPA entered a new era in 2025 under its newly elected board and council. Aligned with national and provincial strategies such as the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin-City Economic Circle, the Belt and Road Initiative, the Yangtze River Economic Belt Development, and the New Western Land-Sea Corridor, SPECPA will continue to contribute to Sichuan's development by facilitating economic cooperation.

Currently, SPECPA is strengthening the establishment of its branches and specialized committees, which operate independently under the association's regulations while accessing shared resources. It will continue to organize exhibitions, forums, investment promotions, resource matching, policy compilations, and training programs.

Guided by the principles of adhering to Party leadership, serving members, and assisting governments, SPECPA will leverage its experience and strengths to advance its mission in economic cooperation.
