智明 曾

Vice President, Nutrition Care Pharmaceuticals
My belief centers around a motto: 'Infinite Responsibility, Finite Action.' For me, infinite responsibility means actively tackling problems without constraints or avoidance. Finite action represents contemplating solutions within limited resources, acknowledging feasibility and constraints. I am dedicated and actively exploring two key aspects of human civilization: human health and environmental conservation, the cornerstones of our existence. Contributing to solving these issues brings me immense pride and value. Throughout my education and growth, I've cultivated three core competencies: 1. Finding innovative breakthroughs to solve problems. 2. Establishing financial sustainability for business operations. 3. Effectively transforming and commercializing innovative technologies from market, legal, and intellectual property perspectives. These abilities allow us to achieve dreams within constraints, leveraging my experiences as an entrepreneur, manager, and investor to realize ideals. A good technology requires support from regulations and intellectual property; a good product needs marketing and communication, while a good enterprise necessitates sustainable management. I look forward to continuing to contribute to human health and sustainable energy development. Collaborating with exceptional global innovators, entrepreneurs, and policymakers, I aim to contribute to a outstanding idea, technological discovery, and development.
