From the perspective of administrative division, Suzhou governs five municipal districts (Gusu District, Huqiu District, Wuzhong District, Xiangcheng District, Wujiang District), four county-level cities (Changshu, Zhangjiagang, Kunshan and Taicang), and another county-level unit (Suzhou Industrial Park).

After the introduction of the New Capital Regulation Bureau, it is difficult to regulate the fund-raising industry. This is what we have tried to do with different types of funding sources. " Suzhou fund partner Liu Yusha told reporters.

From the perspective of the development of the whole equity investment industry, the continuous promotion of capital market reform has shortened the project exit cycle of PE / VC companies. These changes in capital market are bringing about changes in the PE / VC industry.

"With the deepening of the registration system, the number of enterprises and transactions that PE / VC companies can invest in at the unlisted stage is only 2 / 3 of that in the past. In the past, the fifth round of investment was pre IPO. Now some companies are listed in two rounds. " In his speech, Lin Xianghong looked forward to the future development of the equity investment industry. He believed that PE and VC would move towards specialization, and even the "pipe + M & a" mode was expected to become the new mainstream of the equity investment industry.

He added that in the process of deepening market reform, Suzhou fund will try more possibilities.
