Cold-mailing a general inbox rarely reaches a partner, so Private Equity List also lists the investment-team contacts for Tencent — names, roles, verified work emails and LinkedIn profiles — available on a Pro plan from $129/month (see pricing). Contacts are sourced from the firm's website and LinkedIn and re-verified on a rolling cycle. Spot a stale contact, or none at all? Report it — we re-run that firm within 48h and get back to you.
Can I access Tencent data via API or MCP?
Yes. Every field on this page — profile, funds, investment criteria, portfolio and investment-team contacts — is available programmatically through the Private Equity List REST API and MCP server, so AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can query Tencent directly instead of scraping this page. One subscription covers both the web app and machine access — see API & MCP.
