Alvin is also the Vice President of the Industry of Virtual Reality Alliance (IVRA) and the President of the Virtual Reality Venture Capital Alliance (VRVCA). He has almost three decades of business management experience in the tech industry, including 20 years in Greater China beginning with a Senior Management position at Intel in 1993. Prior to HTC, Alvin was a serial entrepreneur, having founded four venture-backed startups in the mobile and internet spaces, covering mobile social, adtech, search, AI, big data and digital media. As you might expect, our conversation covers a ton of topics. We discuss China’s consumer PC market in the early-to-mid 90s; founding and building companies like mInfo and Guanxi the social app; what internet marketing looked like in China 20 years ago; and of course a lot of conversation around virtual reality, metaverse and multiverse.
