About Caixin Media
Established on January 11, 2009, Caixin Media Company Limited (Caixin or Caixin Media) is a media group dedicated to providing financial and business news and information through periodicals, online content, mobile apps, conferences, books, and TV/video programs. Caixin Media aims to blaze a trail that helps traditional media prosper in the new media age through integrated multimedia platforms.
Led by Hu Shuli, the editorial staff at Caixin Media is well known for independent thinking and professional practices. They are insiders with an intimate understanding of China's economic and social transition, and sharp observers with a global vision. As firm advocators and practitioners of professional journalism, they provide high-quality, credible content, and are especially known for the investigative reporting. Caixin Media is referred to as “one of China’s more outspoken media organizations” by The Economist.
As indicated in Shorenstein APARC, Stanford University’s announcement of Caixin Media winning the 2011 Shorenstein Journalism Award, “the core group of Caijing Magazine moved on in November 2009 to found Caixin Media in an effort to preserve their independence in a media environment dominated by the state in China. The company is based in Beijing and is guided by an independent advisory board of noted Chinese and foreign intellectuals and academics. The Caixin team has achieved renown for its coverage of the profound economic and social changes taking place in China and its willingness to dig into the darker corners of that change. In recent months, Caixin has probed into the errors that led to the crash of a high-speed train in China, and investigated the seizure and sale of children by family planning officials in Hunan province.”
