This paper analyzes the literatures of government investment funds with the method of bibliometrics and CiteSpacevisualisation software, showing the overall development of government investment funds in China in the form of a visual map. The results show that a cooperative network of authors and institutions has been built. On the one hand, a comprehensive study of government investment fund itself has formed research themes such as industrial funds, venture capital funds, guidance funds, venture capital, science and technology innovation, and small-and-medium-sized enterprises.
