Founded in 2007, Cyzone (also known as Chuangyebang) has established itself as a significant media and information services provider within China's entrepreneurial landscape. The firm is headquartered in Beijing and operates as a comprehensive service platform dedicated to assisting startups and established corporations in navigating the complexities of business innovation.
The company's business model is multifaceted, revolving around media, data, and consulting services. Cyzone operates a media platform that delivers news, analysis, and insights on technology and venture capital, and hosts prominent annual events like the Demo China Summit and the CYZONE 100 Annual Summit, which collectively attract thousands of startups and investment institutions each year. A core component of its offering is an innovation database and consulting service. This division works with corporate clients to identify market opportunities, manage innovation projects, and connect with emerging technology partners. The firm assists large companies, such as SAP, Porsche, and Murata, in setting up internal incubation programs, running acceleration initiatives, and executing proof-of-concept (PoC) projects with startups. This is achieved by leveraging its extensive network, which includes over 200,000 startups, numerous investment institutions, and a dozen innovation accelerators across China.
Revenue is generated through these corporate innovation consulting services, event sponsorships, and likely through access to its proprietary data and network. The services are tailored to address common corporate challenges, such as sourcing talent, linking with tech partners, and establishing corporate venture capital arms. By facilitating collaborations between large enterprises and startups in fields like automotive, AI, retail, and manufacturing, Cyzone helps its clients accelerate their digital transformation and strengthen their market position in China.
