The new fund will focus on the research and development of new drugs for major diseases and the import substitution of high-end medical devices, as well as the digital and intelligent transformation of enterprise-level services and intelligent hardware on the consumer supply side.

Panlin Capital was established in February 2010. In the past ten years, it has successfully initiated and managed ten funds, including two healthcare industry venture capital funds and two consumer TMT venture capital funds.

Medical treatment is a core investment track chosen by Panlin since its establishment. With the increasing ageing of China’s population, the demand for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of major diseases is growing, and the domestic R&D and innovation industry for new drugs and high-end medical devices is in the ascendant.

"Medical demand is also a consumption upgrade. Only new drug R&D and high-end medical device manufacturers can solve this problem, and behind these companies need life science and biotechnology drive." Li Yuhui said.
