China’s Industrial Evolution: A Scorecard for “Made in China 2025”

Key Takeaways:

China’s Made in China 2025 (MIC25) initiative is a strategic blueprint designed to transform the country’s economy from the world’s top factory for low-cost goods into a leader in high-tech and innovative manufacturing.

Since its initial release in 2015, China has frequently rebranded MIC25 to match its industrial policy objectives, while endeavoring to downplay international concerns. The U.S. government has often focused on MIC25 strategies in its intensifying economic and technological rivalry with China.

China made significant strides in key sectors featured in the plan. It has consolidated its position as a global leader in electric vehicles, renewable energy, and shipbuilding. Despite these advancements, however, China continues to rely on imports for other critical sectors such as semiconductors and biopharmaceuticals.
