The joint venture hospital will be capitalized by Xiang Tan Li Yuan Hospital and Sunnylife Global Inc. The total investment in the project is approximately RMB42 million.

The Xiang Tan Li Yuan Hospital will invest RMB42 million and Sunnylife Global will invest RMB98 million. The hospital is a general hospital with four departments: internal medicine, external medicine, OBGYN and Neurology. The hospital is a 500 bed facility.
