On the hardware investment Logic of Innovation Workshop: Service in the professional field

We have briefly introduced the hardware investment logic of innovative workshop, this time we opened the Shenzhen Open Day, once again invited to the Innovation Workshop partner Laixiaoling, the site to share the logic of Innovation workshop hardware investment.

1 Why invest in hardware now? The development of the Internet hardware to a certain scale, the hardware is actually will be online, offline together with the product, has a great development prospects; Now the chip development is very fast, the function is more and more strong, the power consumption is lower, this is an important prerequisite.

2 The hardware investment logic of the innovation workshop is roughly divided into two lines.

One is to provide professional services to provide professional data on the industry products, such as the investment of sugar nurses, as well as another cardiovascular measurement company. In the past few decades, medical equipment has been very professional and expensive and must be used by professional organizations. The emergence of intelligent hardware can break these thresholds, this space is very large.

Second, the product of entertainment, such as investment in music, the United States, such as mobile phones, air fruit. Similarly, the coverage of these appliances is already very high, with the rise of internet technology, they will soon usher in upgrading, which contains a huge opportunity.

3 also optimistic from the software into the hardware of the start-up companies, more successful cases have the United States Mito cut into the mobile phone field, ink weather into the air fruit. Now a lot of software companies, actually have the opportunity. For example, you can enter the field of pregnancy, this scene is very appropriate.

4 Start-up companies do not have to start on the platform, the beginning is small data, small closed loop to run first, the service, data access, small cycle, and then grow up, do not do the hardware, not even important.

5 hardware incubation is very important, hardware-based entrepreneurship than software difficult, software to trial and error, to quickly iterate, but the hardware can not do; design, production, supply chain, the market is the first to consider.

One of the advantages of the innovation Workshop is that the LP is Foxconn, which is very important for startups because of the early access to investment companies, even the second and third phases.
