No. 2 Venture Capital Frenzy: Experience a Different Kind of High Fun!
Let’s “sing with the spirit of venture capital and play with the style of venture capital.” Investors and entrepreneurs have joined forces to create the VC community’s first exclusive music party—the DEMO Concert. Prominent figures from the investment world, cross-over investors from the entertainment industry, and founders of music companies will gather at the party to share a night of musical revelry.
The performances are not limited to real or virtual characters, boasting a strong innovative presence. In the early years, after Japan’s virtual idol Hatsune Miku rose to prominence, China also witnessed a wave of ACG (Anime, Comic, and Games) culture. The DEMO Concert will serve as their main stage, generating momentum for entrepreneurs!
The event will revolutionize any previous presentation format of DEMO CHINA,

No. 3 Fundraising Is No Longer Just Pre-Series A
This summit breaks with past conventions by introducing an innovative “Integration & Exchange” model centered on “Financing & Networking.” By applying reverse thinking to overcome market bottlenecks, it helps companies secure follow-on financing rapidly. The event features high-quality projects sourced from renowned institutions and connects them with capable acquiring parties. Leveraging multi-channel resources such as Cyzone’s media platforms and incubators, the summit promotes demand-driven, high-quality enterprises on an institutional basis to enhance overall precision. Adopting a “1-to-N” approach—where one startup engages simultaneously with multiple potential acquirers through single-point, multi-end reverse matchmaking—the model provides acquiring institutions with diverse options while expanding the reach of startups to subsequent-round investors and partner enterprises, thereby significantly boosting the success rate of collaborations.
No. 4 A Venture Capital Feast That Draws You In, Despite the Lack of Gourmet Food
Amazon, 360, Liepin, Zhenrongbao, and many other platforms will be present here, where you can discover even more innovative collaborations! We hope that each visit will be fruitful for you. With new exhibitors joining every summit and a dazzling array of innovative products on display, your trip will surely be worthwhile!
There is only one kind of "roadshow"
Only then can it be called DEMO CHINA Innovate China!
Statistical data indicate that adults can maintain high levels of concentration for approximately 15 minutes. Over the course of a two-day summit, relying solely on extended pitch sessions cannot fully resolve project financing challenges. By applying the golden ratio concept (0.618) to identify the optimal timeframe within 15 minutes (9 minutes), and further subdividing it, we arrive at a “6+3” model: a 6-minute pitch followed by a 3-minute commentary.
The perfect combination of “short duration + high interactivity” adds a challenging twist to the standard DEMO format, making it easier to highlight both the strengths and weaknesses of projects during on-stage self-presentations. Although lasting only a few minutes, these sessions foster highly intensive interactions between entrepreneurs and investors. This not only rapidly underscores the brand’s competitive advantages but also enables investors in the audience to quickly grasp key information. With precise coverage from over 200 media outlets, companies can gain million-level exposure and secure rapid financing opportunities within a short timeframe.
We are well aware that roadshow presentations and summit exhibitions are plentiful in today’s Chinese market, but we also know that DEMO CHINA is the right place for you!
Perhaps one day, “Your Name” will also be inscribed on the monument of venture capital and innovation, just like them!
Remember, never be content with merely the surface appearance of the world; dare to explore the unknown possibilities!
