On August 2, the Executive Vice President of Suning Sports Wang Dong disclosed during a media conference that Suning Sports plan to launch a new series of funding they expect will bring in more strategic funding, and the group plans to go public in the next 2 or 3 years.
Suning Sports business strategy mainly consists of 4 parts: sports media, sports equipment, OTT services and sports training.

Most of these users are males in first and second-rate cities, highly paid and highly educated, and mostly fall into the age group of 31-36.
In July 2018, Suning Sports announced their Series A funding that was lead-invested by Alibaba Group and Goldman Sachs and co-invested by Evergrande Group, Yunfeng Capital, SenseTime, Zhejiang Sports Foundation, Jiangsu Sports Foundation, CCB International, Minsheng Bank International, and ABC International.
