Won multiple awards including Best Returns for Early-Stage Funds.

Since 2025, as an early-stage tech investment firm that has remained active on the front lines, we at Linear Capital have clearly sensed a broad warming trend across the primary market this year.

This improved market performance has given us greater confidence to stay firmly focused on investing itself — identifying quality projects that use technology to solve real problems. Over the past several months, the Linear team has continued to hustle on the ground, meeting with founders and deploying capital, backing China's tech industry with concrete action.

At the same time, over the past month we have also received continued industry recognition from multiple venture capital media outlets — and we'd like to share this good news with friends who follow our work.
