"I think these projects are very exciting today", said by Mr. Zhu Xiaohu, Managing Director of GSR Ventures, that "I think there are two characteristics: first, they are very international. There are many countries participating, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia. The degree of internationalization is very high because we can seldom see so many countries particiapting in the usual projects; and second, the industrial distribution is very wide. There are not only new materials, but also artificial intelligence, information technology, biomedicine, etc. So the challenges to the jury is very high". He also expressed that he would like to further understand these projects.

"Thanks to the organization of Alibaba Cloud and Liangcang, they have done a good job. It is not only a meeting for entrepreneurs, but also a very good gathering for VC ventures. The degree of internationalization is relatively high, and the coverage of venture capital hotspots is particularly good, which has basically covered all of the mainstrream hot spots in society", said by Sheng Sen when he spoke on the stage, who is the Founding Partner of Hupan Hongsheng.

Creation brings hope to to the world. Let us look forward to the future, to Hangzhou with grand Cloud Startup and expect that Create @ Alibaba Cloud Startup Contest in the future will bring us more suprises!
