Evernote, one of the most popular note-taking applications, aims to grow China into its largest market in the world within three years, according to the U.S.-based company's senior executives.

During an event celebrating the company's fourth year anniversary after entering the China market, its chief executive Chris O'Neill said the company would launch more features to unlock China's professional and cooperative market potential.

According to O'Neill, the upgraded features mean the app will not only help individual knowledge workers to better tackle the information overload in their lives, but also allow teams to use the app collaboratively to complete projects.

The company has inked a strategic partnership with New Oriental Education & Technology Group Inc, a major provider of private educational services in China, to tap into the country's education industry. But it didn't reveal detailed cooperation plans.

On Friday, Evernote officially announced the number of its global users had exceeded 200 million people. The company says the number of Chinese users has increased from 1 million to 20 million since it entered China in May 2012.

"China is our second largest market in terms of users, the third largest in terms of revenue. But it is the world's largest market in terms of passion," O'Neill said.

China's 1 billion mobile internet users and the rapidly increasing number of knowledge workers in the country are the main reasons for Evernote to have such confidence in the Chinese market.
