First-of-its-kind museum now open
Print Edition
Changfeng Eco-Business Park in Putuo District made history early last month, when it opened the world’s first museum devoted to mergers and acquisitions.
Visitors to the aptly named Museum of Mergers and Acquisitions can learn about this important component of the global financial market through films and exhibitions.
Among the films visitors can watch is “Pirates of Silicon Valley,” which tells the story of Microsoft and Apple during their days as humble start-ups. They can also view “Other People’s Money,” a film highlighting the role lawyers play in the M&A process.
Visitors can also learn about the evolution of the financial industry in Shanghai and the rest of China.
Among the artifacts on display are 20 old Chinese bookkeeping instruments, including an abacus, brushes, seals, ink-stones, letter paper and account books.
The museum is the fifth museum in China dedicated to the finance industry. Other related institutions include the Chinese Museum of Finance in Tianjin, the Chinese Museum of Funds in Suzhou, the Museum of Global Finance in Beijing and the Museum of Internet Finance also in Beijing.
The museum is open to the public from Monday to Friday. It will host symposiums and seminars on M&A-related topics, as well as book reading parties and concerts.
