it is understood that the chongqing seed investment fund (hereinafter referred to as the "seed fund") is a government-type, public special fund, and the source of funds is government investment and accumulated income. the seed fund operates in accordance with the principle of "government guidance and professional operation", focusing on building chongqing's "416" scientific and technological innovation layout and "33618" modern manufacturing cluster system, focusing on key areas, key regions, key platforms, and key teams, highlighting early investment, small investment, and hard technology, supporting scientific and technological achievement verification and pilot verification, and helping science and technology companies and scientific and technological innovation teams settle in chongqing.
the reporter learned that the measures clarify the management structure, investment objects and methods, project investment process, project exit and impairment write-off, supervision and assessment of seed funds, etc. the municipal science and technology bureau performs the supervision function for seed funds, entrusts qualified investment platforms to serve as service agencies, and forms a professional team to assist in project selection, post-investment management and other work, and is responsible for the investment and operation of seed funds.
it is reported that the seed fund will focus on supporting technology companies and scientific and technological innovation teams that meet one of the following conditions: first, they have continuous innovation capabilities, their leading products have good market potential and development prospects, they are at the forefront in industry segments, and their core technologies are conducive to enhancing the city's industrial competitiveness; second, the scientific and technological achievements they hold have won national and municipal natural science awards, technological invention awards, science and technology progress awards and other scientific and technological awards; third, they have scientific and technological talents who have independent intellectual property rights related to their main business or master key core technologies.
the reporter found that the main support method of seed funds is direct equity investment. at the same time, they can select high-quality projects in key areas and key platforms for follow-up investment or joint investment. in principle, the investment amount of seed funds for a single project does not exceed 1 million yuan, and the maximum amount for particularly outstanding projects can reach 2 million yuan. each project will only have one round of investment. after the seed fund invests, the shareholding ratio is up to 40%, and it is not the largest shareholder. seed funds can exit projects through equity repurchase, equity transfer, mergers and acquisitions, listing, liquidation and exit, etc.
in addition, the measures also propose that the service agency shall charge a management fee of 2% of the seed fund's investment balance at the end of the year. the management fee is mainly used for project solicitation, project review, due diligence, post-investment management, project exit and other expenses.
it is reported that the details of the "measures" can be found on the official website of the municipal science and technology bureau. if relevant units, enterprises and people from all walks of life have any opinions or suggestions, they can submit them to the municipal science and technology bureau by letter, email, etc. before september 27.
