Since 2005, CHINICT has been pioneering the "chinization" of global tech entrepreneurship & innovation. Indeed, the dynamic of innovation & entrepreneurship is more and more leaning towards China. As a matter of facts, China is fast catching-up with Silicon Valley both as a hotbed giving birth to innovations of global impact, and as a magnet attracting entrepreneurs from all over the world.

At CHINICT, we showcase this on-going revolution - by gathering each year in Beijing:

• 700 on-site VIP participants, 100 journalists, 2 millions online viewers - coming from all over the world;
• Inspiring world-class speakers from the tech innovation & entrepreneurship ecosystems;
• Industry leaders, Rising stars, and early-stage entrepreneurs - facilitating over USD 5 B of transactions (including customer acquisistion, partnership, fund raising, M&A and IPO) - as well as outstanding media coverage and brand positioning;
• The top-tier VC/PE firms and the stock exchanges;
• High-ranking officials from China, Europe and the US.
