Moon Yin

I come from a diverse background in venture capital, product management, and software engineering. My career began in the U.S. as a software engineer after completing my undergraduate degree in computer engineering. I moved to China and joined as R&D employee No.2 role at a scale-up during the mobile bubble, where I led the development of the first SaaS product tailored for the local market, growing it to a 200K ARR. Following this, I held a global leadership position at SAP, enhancing our security systems to next-generation standards and mastering the intricacies of managing complex stakeholder relationships within large organizations. I further honed my operational and strategic skills while pursuing an MBA from the University of Cambridge. My venture capital journey includes roles at SoftBank China, data-driven growth fund Quantumlight, and deep-tech Foresight WAE, where I gained deep insights into the key metrics critical at each stage of startup and scale-up phases, and built a robust network within the VC community across Europe, China and U.S. Outside of my primary career, I host the entrepreneurial talk show "Founder Investor Dialogues" in collaboration with the University of Cambridge, providing a platform for budding entrepreneurs and seasoned investors to exchange ideas. For fun, I engage in Pilates and Muay Thai and have founded a “Pilates for Men” program aimed at bridging the gender gap in fitness. I look forward to connecting with fellow chief of staff professionals and exploring potential collaborations that leverage our mutual interests and experiences.
