The majority of CVCRI’s recommendations have been adopted- whether the issue was the PE/VC industry admittance system, favorable taxation policies, the establishment of the growth enterprise market, the advantages and disadvantages of international PE/VC entering China, or issues concerning local government development of PE/VC policy. In addition, CVCRI has hosted six separate closed-door round-table policy conferences in Beijing, Shenzhen, and Shenyang with support from the CNDCA (Central Committee of the China National Democratic Construction Association), MOST (Ministry of Science and Technology of the People’s Republic of China), NDRC (National Development and Reform Commission), CSRC (China Securities Regulatory Commission), and related provincial governments, at which PE/VC industry leaders and policymakers engaged in face-to-face dialogues, with excellent results.
