About Leo Wang关于王利杰
I'm Leo Wang, a passionate advocate for democratizing angel investment and empowering grassroots entrepreneurs. Often referred to as "the outlier investor," I believe in the extraordinary potential of ordinary people who dare to dream big and are honed through adversity.我是王利杰,一个执着于让天使投资走向大众、为草根创业者赋能的人。人们常称我为“异类投资人”。我坚信,那些敢于做大梦、又在逆境中被反复打磨的普通人,蕴藏着非凡的潜能。
My angel investment journey began in 2011 with a modest check of $15K for GuruDigger. This sentimental decision marked the inception of PreAngel Fund and unveiled a crucial fact: grassroots entrepreneurs face significant disparities in securing initial capital. Over the past decade, I've invested $40M across 300 startups spanning healthcare technology, financial technology, blockchain applications, mobile internet, and artificial intelligence, resulting in 2 NASDAQ-listed companies, 2 Hong Kong Stock Exchange-listed companies, and 5 unicorns.
One of my most meaningful investments was in SuperMonkey, a company founded by Tiao Tiao, who was facing dire circumstances with a six-month-old baby in her belly when no other investor would believe an ordinary woman could disrupt the fitness industry. Nine years later, SuperMonkey established itself as a prominent fitness brand in major cities, attracting investors like Yao Ming and Sequoia China, and delivering a 400x financial return.
Beyond my own investments, I've been committed to broadening public involvement in angel investing. I've launched an audio course, "Anyone Could Be an Angel," and written "Outlier Investor" to share my philosophy and experiences. I've also spurred partners to create new angel funds, resulting in four independent funds—Galileo Venture, Ten Dimension Angel, DC Capital, and Rongming Capital—which collectively manage assets exceeding $60M USD.
While the past decade was centered on China, my ambitions and portfolios have always been global. For instance, Ehang's autonomous drones have already spanned 14 countries; Westwell's self-driving trucks have served 160+ clients in 18 countries and regions; and Dobot has sold over 68,000 collaborative robots to 100 countries and regions, ranking first in Chinese robot exporter volume for 4 consecutive years.
我的天使投资之路始于 2011 年,第一张支票是投给 GuruDigger 的 1.5 万美元。这个略带感性的决定,既是 PreAngel 基金的起点,也让我看清一个关键事实:草根创业者在获取第一笔启动资金时,面临着巨大的不平等。过去十年,我以 4000 万美元投资了 300 家创业公司,覆盖医疗科技、金融科技、区块链应用、移动互联网和人工智能等领域,最终孵化出 2 家纳斯达克上市公司、2 家港交所上市公司和 5 家独角兽。
我最有意义的投资之一是超级猩猩(SuperMonkey)。创始人跳跳当时处境艰难,身怀六甲(孩子已六个月),却没有任何投资人相信一位普通女性能够颠覆健身行业。九年后,超级猩猩已成长为各大城市颇具影响力的健身品牌,吸引了姚明、红杉中国等投资人,并带来了 400 倍的财务回报。
除了自己出手投资,我也始终致力于让更多普通人参与到天使投资中来。我推出了音频课程《人人都可以做天使投资》,并撰写了《异类投资人》,分享我的理念与经验。我还推动合伙人创办了新的天使基金,催生出伽利略创投、十维天使、DC 资本和荣明资本四支独立基金,合计管理资产超过 6000 万美元。
过去十年虽以中国为重心,但我的野心和投资组合始终是全球化的。比如,亿航的自动驾驶飞行器已飞抵 14 个国家;西井科技的无人驾驶卡车服务了 18 个国家和地区的 160 多家客户;越疆科技已向 100 个国家和地区售出超过 68,000 台协作机器人,并连续四年位居中国机器人出口量第一。
