Mr. Leo Lin, CEO of aitos.io, participates in Matrix Partners China Billions Institute Entrepreneurs Camp
Recently, Matrix Partner of China’s Billions Institute launched its 5th annual Entrepreneur Camp and rigorously recruited Mr. Leo Lin, CEO of aitos.io, to join as a participant in 5th phase of Billions Institute, which brings together founders from “red-hot” fields of entrepreneurship such as Hardware and Enterprise Services & Industrial Internet, Smart Manufacturing, Innovative Medicine, and Medical Services, and also from new categories such as New Consumption, Further Global Expansion, and the Metaverse.
Each Entrepreneur tends to share characteristics such as perseverance, resilience and socially responsible, all from the perspective of industry trends, helping more companies be engaged in original breakthroughs in underlying technologies, independently controlling core technologies, and domestic substitution of critical technologies.
This year’s Entrepreneurship Camp launched with the motto “Be ambition-sensitive and endowment-sensitive,” which is an encouragement and blessing to entrepreneurs. In the eyes of all, these companies have started from their respective strengths to make up for the shortcomings of a particular industry and to undertake their responsibilities and mission, eventually reaping the benefits of long-lasting business partnerships.
As a serial entrepreneur, evangelist, and pioneer in the field of IoT and blockchain, Mr. Leo Lin strongly agrees that entrepreneurs should value personal ambition differences to give help (ambition-sensitive) rather than individual talent or resource differences (endowment-insensitive) and is looking forward to exchanging and learning with the founding managing partner of Matrix Partners, Mr. Zhang Ying, industry star mentors, and 70 business founders, to lead the company to achieve more significant breakthroughs.
Matrix Partners China’s Billions Institute Entrepreneur Camp was created in 2018 and has been in operation for five years to adhere to the principle of diversified recruitment. On the one hand, this reflects the distribution characteristics of the most dynamic and potential entrepreneurial groups. On the other hand, they make every effort to create a three-dimensional ecological atmosphere so entrepreneurs at all tracks can collide with their differentiated DNA makeup to create new ideas, inspire circle-breaking inspiration, and advance cooperation opportunities.
According to the introduction, Matric Partners China’s Billions Institute Entrepreneurship Camp has evaluated 570 applications cumulatively over the past five-year development phases, and 71 people were at long last recruited in an unfolding and layered selection process. Judging from the selected participants, the proportion of founders from Hardware and Enterprise Services & Industrial Internet, Smart Manufacturing, Innovative Medicine, and Medical Services continues to increase. 33 of the selected projects engaged in the research and development of products of independent controllable and domestic alternative technologies. In contrast, ten are involved in primary technological innovation, etc.
