Show Notes
Our guest for today's podcast is James Liang, Founder of Skyline Ventures, a Shanghai-based venture capital firm that invests in outbound opportunities from China to the rest of the world.
James has an impressive background given his 10 year experience in venture capital, including almost 4 years at Sequoia Capital China in his formative years. As many of you know, I am a big champion of the underdog and James' story resonates with all of us that didn't have all the advantages growing up. Like many families growing up in the 1980's in rural China, James' family was poor. But thorough grit, determination, hard work, education, and some luck, he managed to make it and has now launched an independent venture capital firm.
James shares his perspective on why China will continue to have a competitive advantage as the global manufacturing powerhouse for the world.
Without further ado, here is our conversation with James Liang.
