2006 was a record-breaking year for venture capital investments in China. $1.78 billion was invested in 324 deals, representing a robust 45% year-over-year growth rate. China is now the world's second largest market for venture investing. Exits remained strong with 39 China-based IPOs and 13 M&A transactions completed. Equaling 2005's historical high, 45 new VC funds raised nearly $4 billion of fresh capital, ready to be deployed. Clearly, the China venture capital industry is in full swing.

Meanwhile, some interesting changes occurred in the China venture capital industry, according to Zero2IPO Research Center. These changes included the shift of investment interests from the TMT sector to non-TMT, although TMT still received the lion's share of investment. How do VC investors grasp the latest developments in China? As a side note, new regulations released in 2006 and scheduled for 2007 will have an impact on the venture capital cycle in part and as a whole. The topics designed this year will address these issues.

Whether you're a veteran China venture investor, an entrepreneur or service provider already experienced in China, or a newcomer to this fast growing market, the CVCF can help focus your approach and improve your chances for success. A sponsor of private equity and venture capital conferences in China for the past seven years, the China Venture Capital Forum returns to Palo Alto for its second year. CVCF strives to be your preferred partner in the road ahead.
