18th China Private Equity Summit 2019 | HKVCA | 29 May 2019 | Convention and Exhibition Centre, 1 Expo Dr, Wan Chai, Hong Kong

The China Private Equity Summit is an HKVCA flagship event, attracting over 600 venture capital and private equity practitioners, leading corporates, and other industry professionals and participants from across the region. It is recognized throughout the industry as the preeminent, “must-attend” practitioners’ conference, and features in-depth discussions and information on the latest developments and trends in the private equity market in China.

The “new normal” in China appears to be mid single-digit growth, which while still respectable, is significantly slower than in previous years. From “consumption upgrade” amidst general exuberance, sentiment has become more subdued. The economy has been overshadowed by trade tensions with the US. Despite both countries’ efforts to reach common ground after a series of negotiations, uncertainties linger over the bilateral relationship. While new unicorns continue to be created and some of the existing ones continue to flourish, a few others have faltered or retrenched. Healthcare and education, the two “alpha sectors” in the economic transformation, have seen many policy changes. How do firms position themselves in this new environment? Where do investors find new opportunities? What are the new growth engines: AI, robotics, 5G?

The China Private Equity Summit is one of the flagship events of the Association. Last year, it attracted more than 600 Asia Pacific venture capital and private equity practitioners, leading companies and other industry professionals. It is recognized by the industry as a quality representative conference. The summit conducted in-depth discussions and provided market information on the latest developments and trends in the Chinese private equity market. China’s “new economic normal” seems to be in a medium-digit growth, although the growth rate is still considerable, but significantly lower than in previous years. From the “prosperous upgrade” of widespread prosperity, market sentiment has become even more depressed. Sino-US trade tensions have cast a shadow over the economy. After a series of negotiations, the two countries have worked hard to reach a consensus, but bilateral relations still have uncertainties. As new unicorns continue to emerge, some of the unicorns continue to prosper, and others have been faltering or downsizing. Many of the two “alphafa industries” in the economic transition – health care and education – have changed. How do companies position themselves in the new environment? Where do investors find new opportunities? What is the next growth engine: artificial intelligence, robotics, 5G?
