“顺为对话中国”是一档英文播客,现役主播人为Adam Bao,是一位美国长大、毕业于耶鲁大学的年轻人,Adam希望通过自己与中国顶尖的科技人士、创业者、投资人的对话,来让世界了解中国。
在我们的第一集中,Adam与顺为资本副总裁/EIR 孟醒一起探讨了形成中国目前的创投环境的广泛的社会经济,制度和财务因素。
在其中,我们讨论了诸如这样的问题:
为什么中国创始人相对于从头创新(0到1)更善于快速跟进和拓展被验证的模式(从1到100)
对于中国的创业者来说,什么是激励、促使他们去创业的动因?
为什么中国的创业团队中,中层管理人才缺乏?
为什么中国在各种看似利基的市场上会诞生如此众多的独角兽?
怎么会有诸如BAT(百度,阿里巴巴,腾讯)这么多巨大的,多样化的平台呢?
此外,我们还研究了AI,AR / VR等前沿技术,并分享了目前中国那些成功将技术转化为产品的创新商业模式,其中有很多的非常创新、在美国也尚未出现的案例。
孟醒是顺为资本的副总裁/ EIR,他的投资领域涉及前沿技术,AI,机器人,AR / VR等。在过去十年中,他成立了两家AI创业公司,分别被亚马逊和一家中国上市公司收购。孟醒还曾在美国最大博彩娱乐公司CAESARSENTERTAINMENT任职互动娱乐业务亚太区负责人及摩根大通投资银行部门任职。孟醒拥有加州大学伯克利分校应用数学和经济学学士,以及麻省理工大学斯隆商学院MBA学位。
In our first episode, we sit down with Shunwei VP/EIR Meng Xing to explore a broad range of socioeconomic, institutional, and financial factors that shape the Chinese tech environment. For example, why are the Chinese typically fast followers and excel at 1-100 over 0-1? What are primary founder incentives, and why is there a lack of talent in middle management? Why are there so many unicorns in seemingly niche markets, and how come there are so many humongous, diversified platform plays such as the BAT (Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent)?
Additionally, we examine frontier technologies such as AI, AR / VR, and provide examples of the Chinese successfully productizing these technologies via innovative business models that we haven't yet seen in the US.
Meng Xing is VP/EIR at Shunwei Capital covering frontier-tech, AI, robotics, AR/VR, and more. In the past ten years prior, he also founded two AI start-ups that were acquired by Amazon and a listed Chinese company. In between, he worked as an investment banker at J.P. Morgan Hong Kong and casino giant Caesars Entertainment, on top of getting an MBA from the Sloan School of Management at MIT.
