I’m thrilled to announce the newest member of the Nuggets team: influential investor and entrepreneur, Steve Lau.

On our recent tour of Asia, we’ve been showcasing Nuggets to hundreds of new people, including industry experts and commercial teams, and there’s been a huge amount of interest in the platform. With his immense expertise in investing and corporate strategy, Steve is going to be critical in helping us capitalise on that interest, and scale our offer in this vital region.

Steve is an enormously respected and influential figure, with 25 years’ experience as an entrepreneur and angel investor. He’s also a telecoms specialist, well-known for founding the group that became Nokia’s first exclusive distributor in China. And he continues to serve as chairman of the board of telecoms and investment company, China Fortune Holdings.

Telecoms is a critical sector for us, so Steve’s expertise in that field is invaluable. As Senior Strategic Advisor, he’ll be working closely with our team in China, focusing on localisation and introducing information into Chinese markets.

Steve is also Founder and Managing Partner of Eagles Fund — ranked third in the list of China angel investment funds by China FOF Alliance in 2016. Eagles Fund is known for backing projects related to mobile internet, Internet of Things, and Internet+, and has invested in over 100 such projects since it launched in 2012.

As if that wasn’t enough, Steve is also Managing Partner of DFJ Dragon Fund, and one of the angel investors behind Beijing V2 Technology Limited, a leading provider in multimedia software.

Steve’s commercial and technical experience, and his deep knowledge of the Chinese market, will be absolutely invaluable in driving adoption of Nuggets globally. I couldn’t be more excited to have him on board, as part of our hugely experienced and influential team.

These are such exciting times for Nuggets — and they just keep getting more exciting! So stay tuned, I’m sure I’ll be back with more updates soon.
