Dr. XIAO Feng
Wanxiang Blockchain Chairman and CEO
As we prepared for this Wanxiang Blockchain Summit, we learned that it’s important to bring together those thought leaders from the ecosystem to really emphasize the rise of next generation IoT solutions into what is termed “IoT 3.0”. And in that case, it really has to be about continued integration of the Blockchain, privacy computing, artificial intelligence and other technologies. The Internet of Things 3.0 has two key signs: one is the possibility of real-time value exchange at the network level, and the other is a self-organizing network based on trusted data.
Mr. Shen Kang
Partner of Longwin Capital
There can be no mistaking it, the window of opportunity is now for “blockchain +” RMB equity investment trends in China. Longwin Capital is not only an early-stage industrial investor in aitos.io, but also learned a lot from aitos.io’s success and savvy vision. We not only understand the broader world-view of the Internet of Things better, but also deepened our understanding not just in blockchain, but also in the integration and innovation of the Internet of Things with blockchain. Our next investment strategy is called "Blockchain+" model. Based on the standard of aitos.io, we are looking for companies that both know how to use blockchain technology in a certain IoT vertical industry; Reduce costs and increase efficiency, and have the ability to create new business models. This is the criterion we chose.
Mr. Leo Lin
aitos.io CEO
Fellow guests, Thank you very much for coming to the riverside tonight and spending this beautiful night with us, and thank you all for your trust and help in the past 18 months to help us build the BoAT ecosystem. From the very basic core to the most sophisticated elements, we’ve jointly created an ever-expanding ecosystem: What I mean is Blockchain empowerment from four distinct levels: chip architecture, IoT chips, wireless modules, and global mobile operators. With the official release of the " BoAT+PlatONE IoT Data Enablement Platform", we positively believe IoT industry experts and business representatives will participate in the innovation of evolving business models based on the concept of a trusted data base to focus on the IoT and blockchain. This ecosystem emphasizes a bottom-up process to realize integration, while also promoting a transparent exploration of the value of data.
Mr. Liang Xinjun
Co-founder of Fosun Group
aitos.io is a leader in the intersection of IoT and blockchain. I hope that in the next two to three years, aitos.io will strategically deploy the BoAT to as many devices as possible with the help of all these ecosystem partners. The specific development can be divided into three steps: the first stage is to help as many IoT enterprises as possible to solve real needs of diminishing pain points for enterprise devices to access and sent data to the cloud, while concurrently delivering trusted data on the blockchain; the second step, to ferry the data on the blockchain to help companies complete the monetization process for the data, and the third step is to metamorphosize those attributes on to the Internet of Things devices after the payment conditions are mature to realize payment for all things.
Dr. Aglaia Kong
CTO of LeapFive, CTO of Google Enterprise Networks, and CTO of Cisco China
RISC-V is a very good chip architecture, and since it’s open source worldwide we don’t foresee technical limitations for the broad usage of intellectual property rights. Additionally, with the ever-expandable technical features, it is easier to build an autonomous and controllable ecosystem from. Our goals are initially to further collaborate with aitos.io to enrich the blockchain software stack under RISC-V architecture, secondly, we hope to provide a stronger, safer, and more reliable infrastructure support for future IoT applications, and finally to jointly realize the mining of valuable IoT data.
James H. Boettcher
Founding Partner, Focus Ventures
aitos.io has built a next-generation computing platform based on the trusted data of the Internet of Things. When we use the term "Trinity" of things, it refers to how the Internet of Things is responsible for the collection of the data, the usage of artificial intelligence and big data analysis for the processing of massive amounts of data, and then the blockchain is responsible for a credible flow of data, the storage of and the confirmation of the data. aitos.io provides the underlying technology for the digital migration of the physical world, and I am very excited to participate in it. I believe that aitos.io is the emerging technology juggernaut of this new digital empowerment track and will have a very good opportunity to grow rapidly in overseas markets. I am very happy to provide them with help and advice in this regard.
Dr. Chen Xiaotian
The distributed, traceable, and sharing mechanism of the blockchain really offers multiple solutions: It will help the Internet of Things solve data trust and sharing issues, help the conversion to data assets for financial services in future, and deliver real “trust” between the equipment and partners, and finally save costs. As a pioneer and leader in the field of integration and innovation of the Internet of Things and blockchain, aitos.io has transitioned from pure technological innovation to practical adaptative innovation, and is working within this fast-paced industry to create a "next killer APP”-Blockchain+IoT Ecosystem .
