Chapter 8 in Angel Investing in China, 2016, pp 213-258 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: In China, angel investment began at the end of the 20th century and its development accompanied the development of Internet and high-tech enterprises. In recent years, more and more entrepreneurs and industry experts have participated in this field. At the same time, with the development of normalized and institutionalized investment, more and more VC firms are paying attention to the early stage deals, setting up special angel investment funds. Also, there are some high-net-worth individuals that constitute as an angel group by joint investment. Apart from individual angel investment models, many other models like joint investment, institutional investment, combination with business incubator and crowd funding have all undergone extensive exploration and practice. With regard to government support, central and some local governments stress policies that “encourage developing angel investment,” “support to develop angel institution,” “establish angel investment funds” and so on.
