In addition to the integrated circuit design industry, Shanghai will also set up a M&A fund for the biomedical industry with a scale of 10 billion yuan.[Shanghai 10 billion M&A Fund! 】In July this year, when Shanghai promoted the establishment of the parent fund of three leading industries with a total scale of 100 billion yuan, it said that it would focus on the three leading industries of integrated circuits, biomedicine and artificial intelligence, and give play to the functions of "investing early and investing small", industrial investment, merger and acquisition integration, and strengthening the chain, so as to improve the overall energy level and development level of the three leading industries in Shanghai.

Biomedicine, as one of the leading industries in Shanghai, has a scale of nearly one trillion yuan. In 2023, the industrial scale reached 933.732 billion yuan, an increase of 4.9%; Shanghai's biomedical industry chain is relatively complete, with many medical device enterprises and CRO, CMO and CSO enterprises. Therefore, Yuan Shuai believes that the Shanghai Municipal Government will set up a 10 billion yuan M&A fund for biomedical industry, which is expected to cultivate internationally competitive biomedical enterprises through mergers and acquisitions.In this regard, Bu Rixin believes that "chain owners" enterprises, as market-oriented institutions, set up CVC funds and will carry out horizontal and vertical mergers and acquisitions around the upstream and downstream of key industrial chains. "This kind of M&A will help chain-owner enterprises to expand their market scale and enhance their market competitiveness, which is the most in line with the logic of M&A and the basic logic of the Action Plan to encourage chain-owner enterprises to set up CVC funds."Since then, after continuing to Shenzhen and Anhui, Shanghai has also made efforts in mergers and acquisitions.

The "Action Plan" proposes to strive to land a number of representative M&A cases in key industries by 2027, and cultivate about 10 internationally competitive listed companies in key industries such as integrated circuits, biomedicine and new materials.Bu Rixin said that only through mergers and acquisitions and accelerating industrial integration can the benign development of the industry be promoted, which is also one of the most effective measures.For the biomedical industry, Bu Rixin told the reporter of science and technology innovation board Daily that the investment cycle of biomedicine is generally long, and it needs to go through multiple stages from research and development to listing.
