China Materialia LLC is an Advisory and Investment firm focused on the China market and on industries for which Materials Science is a key pillar. We believe that China holds manufacturing advantages and is developing enormous market advantages in these industries as the country continues to grow. Furthermore, China has excellent Materials Science programs in Universities and Innovation Centers around the country, and these Universities and Innovation Centers are attracting some of the best minds in the world with well-thought-out policies. As China embarks on the path of restructuring its economy from manufacturing-driven to knowledge-driven, from export-driven to domestic consumption-driven, from low-cost low-quality to low-cost high-quality, there are great opportunities for US and European companies with advanced technologies and products to open the China market on their own or partner with Chinese companies with commercial channels and financial resources.



We passionately believe that innovations and business opportunities are global. China Materialia strives to bridge the East and the West, introducing Western technologies and businesses to the China market, as well as introducing Chinese technologies and companies to the world. The Principals of China Materialia have been advising US and European materials and materials-related companies on China issues including open innovation, market opportunity, business plan and strategic partnerships.
China Materialia has a team of professionals who are experienced in cross-border businesses and have diverse background in company-building, venture capital, technology, marketing and finance. Collectively:
