Shuo Yang is a partner at Lowercarbon Capital with 11 years of experience backing and scaling science- and technology-driven ventures, having previously led investments and operator roles at Fifty Years and several founded startups. He combines deep technical roots—from engineering research and test & measurement work at Berkeley labs to product development at Ford—with hands-on founder experience building apparel and marketplace businesses that raised venture capital and scaled teams internationally. Known for structuring cross-border deals and launching platforms in China, he has raised seed capital, formed a WFOE in Shenzhen, and built partnerships with top regional brands. Based in Sydney, he pairs strategic investing with operational rigor and a knack for translating complex technical projects into commercial outcomes, and he’s equally likely to talk mangosteen as he is market fit.
