More universities in the world should contribute to build the digital silk road, Zhu Shanlu, party secretary of Peking University said at the sub forum themed "Building a Digital Silk Road for Win-Win Cooperation - Integrate Resources and Develop Innovative Models" in Wuzhen on Wednesday.

Zhu urges more students, professors and principals in the universities to get involved in the digital silk road, and referred to people-to-people exchanges as a good way forward.
