Frederick "Fritz" Demopoulos has been involved in the Chinese media and Internet industries for well over a decade as an executive, investor and entrepreneur.

In 2005 Fritz co-founded China’s largest travel website, Qunar.com, and was the CEO up to August 2011. After eventually growing to become China’s largest travel portal with over 40 mln monthly users, a majority of Qunar was acquired by Baidu in August 2011. This transaction was one of the largest investment deals in the history of the Chinese media and internet space. Fritz also co-founded and was the CEO of China′s biggest online sports media website, Shawei. Shawei was acquired by Hutchison Whampoa-affiliate Tom.com in 2000, and remains until today the most trafficked Chinese online sports media.

Additionally, Fritz held senior management positions at various online and traditional media companies in China including Netease, Hai Run Media Group, Titan Sports and News Corporation.

Fritz currently coordinates his investment and entrepreneurial activities through Queen’s Road Capital, a private equity firm focused on internet opportunities in global emerging markets.

A native of Los Angeles, Fritz was educated at UCLA, The Chinese University of Hong Kong and Karls-Ruprecht University in Heidelberg. He has lectured on entrepreneurship and the Chinese internet at Stanford, Harvard, UCLA, Tsinghua, Beijing University, Singapore Management University and the Communist Party College in Nanjing.

Fritz resides in Hong Kong, is married to a native of Hong Kong and has a keenly curious and delightful young daughter.
