Introduction

ARC Group logo

The Capital Markets & M&A Forum Shanghai brings together decision-makers from across the financial ecosystem to explore the trends shaping public and private capital markets, cross-border transactions, and global expansion strategies for Chinese enterprises. Designed for founders, C-suite executives, investors, and advisors, the forum offers a closed-door, off-the-record environment for meaningful exchange and relationship building.

Founded in Shanghai in 2015, ARC Group has spent a decade at the center of China’s cross-border deal flow. The 2026 Shanghai edition draws on that network, with a sharpened focus on overseas listing pathways, capital formation, and M&A opportunity for companies connecting to international markets.
