As the Chinese private equity industry continues to mature, the market has becoming increasingly crowded. The need to distinguish the excellent from the simply good has become more difficult, especially for new LPs and potential portfolio companies, both of which have their choice of GPs.

I am therefore happy to announce that voting is open for the 2012 AVCJ Private Equity & Venture Capital Awards China. As always, our motto is "Recognizing Excellence in Asian Private Equity." From now until May 18, we invite the entire Asia private equity community to highlight the excellence in China's private equity space by singling out the top investments, exits, fund raises, firms and professionals from the past 12 months.

To vote, please visit our AVCJ China Awards page at www.asianfn.com/votechn.asp.

The list of nominees were the result of submissions from industry participants supplemented by the AVCJ Editorial Board, which coordinated with a judging panel drawn from leading LPs and experts from across the region.

The final results will be announced at the AVCJ Private Equity & Venture Forum China (www.avcjchina.com), which takes place in Beijing on May 30-31.
