A home in Shanghai for your innovation team
Startup Connects is a 12-month programme for corporates that want a presence in our riverfront innovation space and direct, ongoing access to the startups shaping their industries. You set the themes; we bring the founders.
The entire 18th floor: 1,700 m² on the Yangpu riverfront
A home for corporate partners and founders: event space for up to 100 guests, workshop and meeting rooms, and lounges overlooking the Huangpu River.
Three things, all year round
Access to our space
Your team can use meeting rooms and common areas on our 18th floor for meetings, workshops and coordination, on request. A base for your people whenever they are in Shanghai.
A showcase for your technologies
A dedicated exhibition space in our office to present your brand, products and innovation priorities to the founders, investors and partners who visit every week. We help install your exhibition cabinet.
Industry showcase events
Up to two half-day events a year on themes you define. We invite relevant founders, CEOs and senior managers, host the venue and logistics, and moderate the programme, while your team presents your business and the collaboration opportunities you are looking for.
Built around your priorities
- A 12-month term, renewable by mutual agreement
- You define the focus areas; we curate the startups
- Start any time; events scheduled around your calendar
- Part of the wider CMVC platform, including our portfolio companies and Innovation China, held twice a year by the Strategic Emerging Industries Foundation
