China-US Incubation and Innovation Summit provides a unique opportunity for investors and entrepreneurs to connect with leading incubators/accelerators and other professional service firms from China and U.S. It is an excellent platform for companies to leverage significant resources globe wide and actualize cross-border incubation and investment.
The Global Investor Summit (GIS) provides an unparalleled platform for China-based venture capital funds, funds of fund, wealth management conglomerate and enterprises to meet with investors and entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley. The 2017 GIS has successfully built up an ecosystem for entrepreneurs and investors from China and U.S. to meet, interact and grow together. This year, 2018 GIS will have more than 500 top managers of the largest investment portfolios throughout the world – the most senior investment executives with direct responsibility for researching, selecting asset and fund managers, as well as CEOs of Unicorn Startups in China and US.
The agenda of China-US intellectual Property Summit is tailored to meet the practical needs of companies and investment institutions. The rapid innovation in artificial intelligence, block chain, and life sciences have brought immense opportunities and challenges for startup companies and investors during the course of global expansion and cross- border collaborations. Based on the different perspectives from both sides of the Pacific, this Summit aims to engage in a two-way discussion between China and US experts and practitioners on cross- border intellectual property issues. On one hand, US-based technology companies face challenges in protecting IP rights when they expand into the Chinese market or establish operations in China. On the other hand, Chinese companies need to navigate the IP landscape when they start selling products and services in the US.
This seminar intends to build up a focused and intimate environment for discussions on policies, laws and tax regulations concerning investment in US. It will provide an in-depth analysis of the secondary market and real estate industry in US.
