Cambridge has seen an enormous interest in UK|China investments and business deals. The innovative technology generated in the Cambridge Cluster and the possibilities of the Chinese Market can be a powerful combination.

To help connect Chinese investors with emerging and innovative Cambridge and UK-based businesses, and as an important part of Cambridge China Forum 2019, Cambridge China Centre is curating another exclusive venture-capital pitch event with Chinese investors on the 16 October 2019 at the Wellcome Genome Campus Conference Centre.

This Pitch Event builds upon the success and demand generated at the inaugural Cambridge China Forum 2018, Cambridge China Centre and Business Weekly introducing the UK|China Business Award, and the Cambridge China Centre Spring Pitch Event in March 2019.

We currently have commitments from thirty Chinese investment companies to attend, representing larger networks of businesses and technology resources in China and internationally. Confirmed investors include: China Science & Merchants Capital Management, Everbright Financial, Beihang Investment, Council of Industry and Technology Alliances in Z-Park, Shengjing 360, Puhua Capital, THG Ventures, CYZone, TusStar VC, Herald Investment Management, ET Capital, The UK China Enterprise Fund, The Sino-UK Fund and Puxin Education Fund…
