HongShan (HSG)

HongShan (HSG), formerly known as Sequoia Capital China, is a leading global venture capital and private equity firm investing across technology, healthcare, and consumer sectors. Founded in 2005 by Neil Shen with early guidance from Sequoia Capital, the firm spun off as an independent entity in 2023-2024, rebranding from Sequoia China to HongShan (a pinyin romanization of its Chinese name, meaning "redwood") while retaining its original Chinese name. HSG invests across the full lifecycle - seed, venture, growth, buyout, and infrastructure - and also runs a public equities business (HCEP). The firm manages over USD 61 billion in assets (as of April 30, 2026) and has backed more than 1,700 companies since inception, with 180+ having gone public and 140+ reaching unicorn status. HSG operates from Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, London, Tokyo, and Singapore. Notable portfolio companies include Alibaba, ByteDance, Meituan, Pinduoduo, BYD, Nio, Xpeng, Airwallex, Canva, Monzo, and Moderna.

HongShan (HSG) is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

HongShan (HSG) is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
