In 2025, Fosun steadfastly focused on its core businesses.

Twelve milestones, like twelve signposts,

marked every step of Fosun’s ascent throughout the year.


We pushed the boundaries of cure through innovation,

measured the breadth of the world with our footsteps,

navigated the waves with perseverance,

and let time witness our determination.

We believe that the dawn of the new year will light the way towards a new chapter in 2026.
