Wen Han, founder of Windrose Technology, describes his firm as having Chinese origins despite its global investor base and Belgian headquarters. Targeting the long-haul electric truck market, Han plans to go public in New York to raise over $400 million. His experiences in both the U.S. and China influence his approach amid prevailing geopolitical tensions. While acknowledging the fraught relationship between the two nations, he believes in fostering cooperation rather than animosity, highlighting the importance of not viewing individuals from any country as adversaries by default.
Windrose's investors include an Australian property group, U.S. venture capital financiers and Chinese state-owned funds, showcasing a diverse financial backing.
Mr. Han is mindful of what he calls Windrose's Chineseness, as he navigates through geopolitics and trade tensions while promoting his company.
Mr. Han stated, 'China will never be America's best friend, not in our lifetimes, but China doesn't have to be the enemy forever.'
With plans to take Windrose public in New York, Mr. Han aims to raise at least $400 million amid a complex global business environment.
