In the era of mobile health innovation, VCBeat has spent nearly five years building friendships with thousands of peers dedicated to global healthcare innovation. Hundreds of thousands of professionals in the medical innovation sector have relied on VCBeat to stay informed about developments both in China and abroad. VCBeat is fortunate to have done the right things, with the right people, at the right time.


With the introduction of a series of new drug policies in China, the influx of domestic and international capital, and the large-scale return of talent, the biotechnology sector and innovative drug R&D have entered a phase of vigorous development. Since February, VCBeat has begun to focus closely on the biomedical industry and has assembled a team to launch a new WeChat official account—VCBeat BioMed (WeChat ID: biobeat1).


Since its launch two months ago, VCBeat’s New Medicine channel has published 251 articles, providing comprehensive coverage of the biopharmaceutical sector across multiple dimensions, including industry news, capital markets, innovative biotechnologies, and corporate case studies.

Build a Comprehensive and Rapid Biopharmaceutical Investment and Financing Database


In the recently released report on biopharmaceutical investment and financing data for Q1 2019, we found that the investment and financing data in the biopharmaceutical sector covered by the VCBeat database has surpassed that of media outlets such as Rock Health, StartupHealth, and Evaluate Pharma. To date, within the biopharmaceutical sector alone, the VCBeat New Medicine channel has reported on 106 investment and financing deals within just two months.


According to Evaluate Pharma’s database statistics on financing trends in the biopharmaceutical sector, there were 97 global financing deals totaling $3.5 billion, indicating that the slowdown in investment continues. In contrast, VCBeat’s database recorded 131 financing deals with a total amount of $4.764 billion. Due to differences in data volume, VBInsight has reached a different assessment of industry trends compared to Evaluate Pharma.


Meanwhile, according to VCBeat’s database statistics, there were a total of 131 financing events in the biopharmaceutical sector in Q1 2019, while VCBeat’s New Medicine channel reported on 106 of these within just two months. This means that detailed coverage of most global biopharmaceutical investment and financing events can currently be found on VCBeat’s New Medicine channel. We are also striving to ensure that VCBeat serves as the first domestic news source for an increasing number of global biopharmaceutical investment and financing events.
