What the Hillhouse Team is doing to Support Coronavirus Relief

Posted in Updates on

The Hillhouse team stands with residents of Wuhan as they collectively combat the coronavirus. We send our most heartfelt wishes for a fast recovery to patients undergoing treatment and our gratitude to the doctors, nurses, and administrators on the frontlines of this battle. Our team and our portfolio companies, including those in the healthcare community, have initiated efforts to deliver aid and information to the affected areas. Some examples of these efforts include:

  • Hillhouse provided a grant of RMB 10 million through Cowell to procure urgently needed medications and protective gear to be delivered to Wuhan area hospitals. In addition, Cowell has donated 100,000 medical masks and 100,000 bottles of disinfectant to alleviate the shortage of medical supplies in the region (see photo below).
