Our Story

Hey, this is Ari! I built SinovateX, an independent platform, with a simple goal to bridge tech innovation between west and east.
I grew up in China in the 90s, and was fortunate to witness China’s historical economic miracle and got to understand what it takes to realize that scale of transformation. I worked in China briefly before moving to the west. I’ve lived in many different tech communities around the world, and now I work in venture closely with founders, and focus on partnerships and community building.
China is complex country to navigate for foreigners, the viral videos on X about the tech application in China is just the tip of the iceberg, you have to see things first-hand to break the old framework of thinking and let reality reshape your sense of what's possible.
Collaboration over competition, because humanity's greatest achievements are built together.
