谢云龙创办世界创新大会（WIC）的战略过程：
2016年，为贯彻习近平总书记关于创新发展重要论述和重要指示精神，服务国家创新发展战略，促进国际创新交流合作，谢云龙以开创性的战略思维发起并推动创办“中国创新大会”（CIC）。
2017年6月，首届中国创新大会在广州成功举办。大会得到了国务院发展研究中心、科学技术部、国家发展和改革委员会、工业和信息化部及广东省委、省政府等单位的指导和大力支持。时任中共中央政治局委员、广东省委书记胡春华宣布大会开幕，10余位部省领导致辞，30余位顶尖科学家与知名企业家作主旨演讲，来自100多个国家和地区的1500余位嘉宾代表参会，会议获得国际社会广泛关注。
2018年，在成功运营中国创新大会（CIC）的基础上，为更主动地链接全球创新资源，谢云龙以前瞻性的国际视野，先行创办“创新全球论坛”（IGF），致力于搭建高水平的国际创新对话平台。该论坛的成功运作，为大会体系注入了国际化基因，积累了全球合作资源。
2019年，基于前期实践成果，谢云龙战略性地将“中国创新大会”与“创新全球论坛”整合升级为“世界创新大会（WIC）”，推动大会实现从国家级平台向国际创新平台的跨越式发展，开启致力于推动创新和促进国际创新交流合作的新篇章。大会以携手构建全球创新共同体、让创新造福人类为使命，致力打造立足中国、链接世界、具有全球影响力的国际新型组织，成为政府、企业、科研机构及国际组织深度交流合作的重要桥梁。
