Additional text
'China's venture capital industry has grown explosively over the last decade and today rivals that of the United States in its influence and performance. But the complex workings of this sector remain poorly understood, including by many seasoned venture capitalists. This book provides a clear, informative and insightful exploration of the evolving structure and organization of Chinese venture funds, a sector that will be critical to the future of innovation domestically and globally.'
