Bio
For the past ten years, Mr Cheung led Intel Capital's investments and direction in China, culminating in Intel Capital being awarded "Top 10" or "Top 50" VC in China consecutively 4 years from 2006-2009 by both China Venture and Zero2IPO and Cadol, himself, as a "Best 50 VC Manager in China" in 2009 by ChinaVenture. Among others, Intel Capital was also awarded "Green Investment - VC/PE Most Active Player Award" by the China Environment Association in 2009 and "VC of the Year" at the 2008 Asia M&A Forum. Mr Cheung was brought into Intel Capital from his role as General Manager, Intel Shanghai Software Lab at Intel Corporation following the departure of two key Intel Capital directors in 1999. He came in to head strategic investments for the entire Asia Pacific region, excluding Japan, and immediately rebuilt and expanded Intel Capital Asia Pacific to what it is today. Mr Cheung took a skeleton team of two in 1999 and expanded that to about 20 by 2005. Under his direction Intel Capital invested over US$710 million in Asia Pacific with 31 IPOs, of which US$480 million are for Chinese enterprises. From 2005 until June 2009, when Intel Capital's focus on investment shifted to balance strategic and financial goals, he became the Managing Director for China, Taiwan, and Korea and devoted focus to China. He managed two proprietary China Funds that were established at his direction: US$200 million Fund 1, vintage 2005, and US$500 million Fund 2, vintage 2008. Prior to Intel Capital, Mr Cheung spent 16 years at Intel Corporation holding various management positions in manufacturing, IT, sales & marketing operations, and general operations. His extensive China experience began in the early 1990s as Director of Business Development to develop relationships with new telecom service operators and he was the General Manager of Intel's pioneering Shanghai Software Lab for three and a half years (1996-1999). Mr Cheung is a Director of Monte Jade Science and Technology Association and a Coach in the Cradle Program of the Asia American MultiTechnology Association. Mr Cheung has an Engineering Degree in Production and Industrial Engineering from Hong Kong Polytechnic and an MBA from The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
