Capvent

Chinese and Indian businesses are on the move! Cross border acquisitions by China and India in other countries touched the US$ 24BN mark in 2006.

Their quest for new markets, resources, knowledge and capabilities, or simply the desire to build a global organization is driving Chinese and Indian companies to work with PE firms. The combined PE investment in the two countries is expected to be over US$ 25BN this year.

About Capvent Private equity is thus evolving into a strong force that will assist the global aspirations of Chinese and Indian businesses, as illustrated by the two-thirds share of PE in all foreign direct investments in India.

The Capvent China-India Private Equity Summit 2007 will explore these key trends and their impact on the two countries, their industries and the global private equity business. This is the only event that brings together leading fund managers from China, India, Europe and the US on the same platform to share their thoughts and experience on the role of private equity players in the inevitable ascension of these two Asian juggernauts. The Summit will also see pioneering Indian and Chinese companies sharing insights on their approach and forays into other markets.

Key themes to be addressed will include:

•	The role of private equity firms in China and India in facilitating the global growth of local companies
•	The forces driving Indian and Chinese companies toward global competitiveness
•	The sectors and approaches in which Indian and Chinese businesses can leverage each other’s strengths
•	The strategies and approaches of North American and European private equity firms as economic focus moves towards China and India
