The venture capital arm of Lenovo Group<\/a> is doubling down on artificial intelligence for the next industrial cycle, expanding its focus beyond foundational models into robotics, computing infrastructure and AI agents, according to a senior executive.Lenovo Capital has made long-term bets on more than 100 AI companies across the value chain, ranging from chips and hardware infrastructure<\/a> to models and applications, Song Chunyu, chief investment officer and senior partner at the unit, told the South China Morning Post and other media on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

AI-related businesses now make up nearly one-third of the fund\u2019s roughly 300 portfolio holdings, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom a global perspective, AI is now the most important theme for the venture capital industry<\/a>,\u201d said Song, who is also a vice-president at Lenovo Group. \u201cThis is like the fourth industrial [revolution] \u2026 where AI evolution \u2026 has reached a [tipping] point.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since helping establish Lenovo\u2019s corporate venture arm in 2016, Song has driven a \u201csniper\u201d investment philosophy, focused on targeting top performers in key frontier technology sectors rather than spraying capital across the market.<\/p>\n

The strategy has produced some stand-out bets, including Cambricon Technologies \u2013 often dubbed China\u2019s \u201clittle Nvidia\u201d \u2013 and AI champion Zhipu AI<\/a>, which went public in Hong Kong earlier this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The venture capital arm of Lenovo Group is doubling down on artificial intelligence for the next industrial cycle,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":122515,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[24,405,7537,61841,387,700,2700,1590,61844,61843,377,61842,1414,214,9756],"class_list":["post-122514","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-agentic-ai","tag-ai","tag-ai-agents","tag-artificial-intelligence-agents","tag-cambricon-technologies","tag-china","tag-europe","tag-hong-kong","tag-israel","tag-lenovo-capital","tag-lenovo-group","tag-robotics","tag-song-chunyun","tag-south-china-morning-post","tag-united-states","tag-zhipu-ai"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=122514"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122514\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/122515"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=122514"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=122514"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=122514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
