Patient Capital Empowering Innovation, 2026 SuperLink Ushering in a New Era of Venture Capital Value Co-Creation
From June 10th to 11th, 2026, the 2026 SuperLink event successfully concluded by the Taihu Lake in Wuzhong, Suzhou. This event was hosted by Zero2IPO Group (01945.HK) and PE Daily, and co - hosted by Wuzhong Financial Holding Group. Hundreds of leading figures and industry elites in the venture capital field gathered at the event to attend this grand venture capital event.
Currently, the private equity investment field is undergoing a profound transformation: government - guided funds and merger and acquisition funds are continuously expanding, and social capital is accelerating its flow towards hard - tech and future industries. Cutting - edge technologies are driving the shift of capital and industries from scale expansion to in - depth empowerment and ecological co - construction. Standing at a crucial juncture in the industry's development, this year's conference centered on the core concept of "Super Link" and set up five core sectors and ten interactive scenarios. Through in - depth dialogues between LPs and GPs, trend analysis of future industries and other rich contents, it promoted the two - way integration of capital and industries, achieving a key leap from an "exchange platform" to an "ecological core".
Reconstruct Consensus with Patient Capital, Solve Industry Problems with Diverse Exits
As the core sector of the conference, the 20th PE Daily Fund Partners Conference focused on the core pain points and incremental opportunities in the current LP/GP industry. The traditional logic of "IPO is king" is facing challenges, and the industry urgently needs to explore diverse exit paths to relieve the pressure of exiting existing projects. With the change of market logic, the layout ideas and value judgments of investment institutions have also been adjusted. Dou Yong, a partner of Fortune Capital, said: "The paths of the six major pillar industries in the future are clear, but the commercialization cycles of tracks such as quantum and nuclear fusion are long. We focus on specific tracks and abandon projects beyond our cognitive scope. We should stay calm when the market is booming, and only when the tide recedes can we see who is left on the beach."
How to win the long - term trust of LPs and create investment returns that can stand the test is also a focus of the industry. Zhu Jia, a partner of Guanghe Venture Capital, said: "The imagination space of Chinese technology companies is opening up, but the market can no longer support broad - spectrum investment. We must go deeper to identify opportunities earlier. Investment is a competition of cognitive depth. We cannot use linear thinking and should capture the technological demands generated by new changes such as the Agent era."
Empower with Science and Technology Innovation, Forge the Engine of New - Quality Productivity
Currently, scientific and technological innovation has become the core variable driving high - quality development. The Science and Technology Innovation Conference comprehensively presented the in - depth integration of technology and capital, covering topics from AI empowerment to the frontiers of biomedicine, from domestic substitution in high - end manufacturing to the underlying logic of science and technology innovation investment. Xu Xiao, the founding partner and chairman of Orient Fortune Capital, shared: "The development of AI is of epoch - making significance. This wave has just begun, and the underlying technologies are still evolving. In the future, we should firmly invest in and actively embrace the AI wave."
Biomedicine is at a crossroads of innovation and capital. Song Gaoguang, a partner of Northern Light Venture Capital, shared: "The medical field is a long - cycle track. After the shift from policy - driven to market - driven, the investment logic has also shifted from focusing on commercialization to R & D efficiency. The ability of a team to quickly test and continuously iterate is more important than a single product."
High - end manufacturing is in a critical window period for domestic substitution. Gong Puling, the founder and chairman of Tangxing Capital, said: "In the fields of hard - tech and high - end manufacturing, domestic substitution has shifted from imitation to independent R & D, and the penetration rate and implementation ability of the material track have been significantly improved. With the return of talents and the integration of industry, academia and research, key fields are expected to achieve independent breakthroughs."
Science and technology innovation investment is shifting from "track frenzy" to "value return". Xu Jingming, the chairman of iFlytek Venture Capital, proposed: "The essence of CVC is to invest in good projects and achieve synergy between the industry and the ecosystem. Currently, we should embrace the trend and make careful evaluations."
Look Ahead to Future Industries, Seize the High - Tech Commanding Heights
The conference also held a Future Industries Conference, focusing on cutting - edge hard - tech tracks, targeting next - generation core industries such as artificial intelligence, embodied intelligence, brain - computer interfaces, and quantum technology, and unlocking new paradigms for industrial development in the next decade.
In a round - table discussion on the commercialization path of embodied intelligence, Zhang Peng, the co - founder of Zhifang, said: "The investment window period for the embodied track only exists before the technology and the market mature. Once the number of robots reaches over 100 million, what remains is only commercial value, not investment opportunities."
The synergy between energy and computing power is an inevitable issue in the AI era. Guo Houyang, the founder, chairman and CEO of Nova Fusion, presented a forward - looking vision of using controllable nuclear fusion as the energy base for the AI era. Yang Jiawei, the founder of Nuoxinjia, triggered in - depth thinking about the application scenarios and ethical boundaries of brain - computer interfaces.
Quantum computing is approaching the critical point of industrialization. The choice of technology route will determine who can be the first to open the door to practical application. Ma Yin of Bose Quantum said: "From the '14th Five - Year Plan' at the beginning of the year to the current capital market, quantum technology has just had a small upsurge, but there is still a stage before the big wave, and it will continue to develop."
Ride the Robot Wave, Tap into Industrial Transformation
The robot industry is experiencing a key leap from "technology verification" to "scale implementation". Driven by the "Made in China 2025" initiative and the national artificial intelligence strategy, sub - tracks such as humanoid robots, industrial automation, and service robots are accelerating their differentiation. The mismatch between capital inflow and industry maturity has become a new issue in the industry. At the Robot Conference, Zhao Guangzhi, the co - founder of Luming Robot, proposed: "In the physical field, robots will eventually converge into a general ontology and a general model, and the business model will be completely different from the past, hiding huge market opportunities."
With the breakthroughs in neuroscience, materials science and computing power technology, brain - computer interfaces are moving from the laboratory to clinical and consumer scenarios. Gong Yi, the founder and chairman of Dongwei Semiconductor, said: "Doing materials research through dialogue with AI is extremely efficient. In a sense, it is already a kind of 'brain - computer interface'. Looking forward, high - bandwidth human - machine communication will enable robots to perform more complex tasks."
In addition, the Robot Conference specially set up a "Lake Tech" project roadshow session. Four robot companies, including LeXiang Technology, KeYi Technology, XiNuo Future, and XiaoMao Robot, took the stage in turn to showcase their core technological barriers and commercialization paths to the investment institutions present, building an efficient connection bridge for both venture capital parties.
The two - day conference consisted of five core sectors: the opening ceremony, the 20th PE Daily Fund Partners Conference, the Future Industries Conference, the Robot Conference, and the Science and Technology Innovation Conference, forming a complete agenda from macro - level analysis to in - depth exploration of vertical tracks. The event also held targeted communication activities such as a closed - door seminar for state - owned funds. Fund release hall activities, including the Zhejiang Special Session, the Shenzhen Angel Investment Guidance Fund Special Session, the Suzhou Strategic Emerging Fund & Wuzhong Financial Holding Group Special Session, and the Shaanxi Provincial Government Investment Guidance Fund & Xi'an Industrial Investment Fund Special Session, were carried out successively, promoting the precise connection between financial resources and industries and facilitating efficient cooperation between LPs and GPs.
In addition, the conference set up a SuperLink Show exhibition area, which concentrated on displaying the latest achievements in fields such as robots, AI applications, science and technology innovation, and life sciences. Special social activities such as Taihu Lake cycling and the PE Daily Night broke down industry and institutional barriers and built an open and interconnected communication ecosystem. With ten interactive scenarios as the carrier, this year's conference took into account trend interpretation, track exploration, capital connection, and resource exchange, creating a high - value industry convergence platform.
The 2026 SuperLink event successfully concluded with lively exchanges and industry consensus. The conference has gathered industry consensus on moving from information exchange to trust - building and from resource connection to value co - creation, weaving a precisely - matched value network for the venture capital ecosystem. In the future, the conference will continue to join hands with industry partners to start a new narrative, injecting continuous connection momentum into every innovation breakthrough.
