Editor's note: Chinese mainland companies dominate the global initial public offering (IPO) market in terms of the funds raised and the number of deals in 2010. While the Hong Kong market remains the more attractive choice for companies planning IPO, and American bourses win the favor of information technology companies, the domestic capital markets are also becoming more attractive.
Here we list global IPOs conducted by ten mainland companies in 2010, covering industries like banking, e-commerce, green energy and advanced technology. Most of these companies are the "lead horse"in their fields.
