While there are many venture capital events around the world, few are dedicated to "deep-tech" or "hard-tech"
While China's Internet companies are well-known, few know China's brightest companies in materials or industrial IOT
While corporate venture capital is at all-time high, start-ups have difficulties meeting strategic investors
Innovation China Conference is a not-for-profit conference organized to fill the gaps:
Innovation China 2015 - Hard Technology Investing
Innovation China 2016 - Advanced Manufacturing
Innovation China 2017 - Digital Industrial
Innovation China 2018 - New Materials
Each conference brought together thought leaders from multinational companies,
venture capital and corporate venture capital companies
and brightest start-ups in specific sectors to exchange ideas
Many start-ups successfully raised venture financing after attending the Innovation China conferences
Attended by ~ 200 professionals, the Innovation China conferences are great networking events
Innovation China 2019 - Functional Materials will continue the 2018 conference theme of materials
You will hear from China's leading startups in semiconductor materials, new energy, bio-functional materials, as well as US start-ups in display, conductive polymers, electrochromic windows, etc...
You will also hear from MNC companies and their venture groups
“The Innovation China conference brings together a wealth of startups, entrepreneurs and large corporates, all uniquely focused on the industrial manufacturing and materials space. It is a great opportunity see and experience the breadth of what China’s start up community has to offer.”
