Tong Xie
Tong is an investor with two decades at the intersection of enterprise, startups and emerging technology. He began his career at IBM, where he spent 15 years in consulting, technical sales and solution architecture, learning how complex organizations buy, integrate and scale new technology. He then spent five years founding and scaling his own ventures, gaining a ground-level view of what it takes to go from zero to market. Along the way he worked closely with deep tech companies in robotics, AI and advanced manufacturing, helping leadership teams shape go-to-market strategy, build scalable operations and prepare for institutional growth.
He previously served as Managing Director of Decent Capital, where he invested across the U.S. and Asia.
Today, as Founding Partner of Hanor Ventures, Tong works with founders building the next generation of technology companies. Companies he has backed include Unitree Robotics, Lightelligence, BrainCo, Axoft and Quince.
