Dec. 29th, 2019 – NIO Capital has just closed its first USD fund, Eve ONE L.P., bringing in over $200 million in committed capital. The fund has attracted support from some of the world’s top investors, from sovereign wealth funds to global insurance firms, family foundations, multi national corporates and other top-of-the-line investment institutions. Eve ONE L.P. is committed to becoming a top-performing USD fund in areas including mobility, energy, logistics as well as other fields.
 
蔚来资本成立于2016年,一直以来,秉持“根植前沿产业,创造伟大公司”的投资理念,主要围绕大出行与汽车变革、硬科技与产业升级、物联网与新消费等方向进行投资布局。
 
NIO Capital has adhered to its investment philosophy of "creating valuable companies at the cutting-edge" since its founding in 2016 and has focused on an investment strategy centered around transportation and the automotive revolution, as well as technology, industrial upgrading, the Internet of Things and new consumerism.
 
蔚来资本拥有兼具深厚产业背景与专业投管能力的复合型团队,管理合伙人李斌、朱岩、余宁分别在科技创新、创业投资、汽车出行等领域具备资深经验。团队始终坚持产业视角,基于对汽车出行、产业升级及新经济相关领域演变发展的深刻理解,预先发现巨大潜在市场中快速增长的细分领域,并找到其中最优秀的企业家和创业团队,多维度给予支持。同时,蔚来资本高度关注技术与商业模式的创新,但不囿于“创新”本身,而是坚持从实际应用场景出发,寻找能够实现创新成果转化的投资机会。

NIO Capital boasts a multidisciplinary team with solid industry experience and professional investment management capabilities. The managing partners, William Li, Ian Zhu and Nathan Yu, have senior experience in a variety of areas including technological innovation, venture capital and automotive transportation. NIO Capital has maintained an industrial perspective based on a thorough understanding of automotive transportation, industrial upgrading and new economic development, and has already pinpointed rapidly growing segments in huge potential markets, targeting the best entrepreneurs and teams for support. NIO Capital also attaches great importance to technological and business model innovation without falling into the trap of innovation for innovation’s sake. Instead, NIO Capital starts from real application scenarios, and looks for investment opportunities that can realize demonstrable results.

蔚来资本管理合伙人李斌表示,当前国际格局、经济周期、生态环境、人口结构等宏观维度正在发生深刻调整,众多支柱与底层行业也在进行交织变化,本期美元基金能够让我们同全球最优秀的一批投资人站在一起,以更具全球视角的眼光及早发现变革背后的底层规律,更加敏锐地挖掘新常态下的新机遇。在管理合伙人朱岩看来,此次蔚来资本首支美元基金的顺利募集,说明在充满不确定性的全球资本市场中,投资者依然长期看多中国,看好中国经济增长和结构转型的潜力,看重汽车、能源、物流等传统领域中存在的巨大转型机会,和蔚来资本在上述领域的投资能力。管理合伙人余宁认为,产业化思维与创业者视角将使投资机构具备更多的差异化优势,美元基金的成功设立不仅使蔚来资本进一步拓展了投资工具,更有助于整合国内外资源,共同帮助被投企业及创业者开创事业新格局。

As managing partner of NIO Capital, William Li, notes that we are currently witnessing profound shifts across the macro environment. Many core and foundational industries are undergoing related changes. This USD fund gives us insight into the underlying causes of these changes from a global perspective, along with other top global investors, while agilely exploring new opportunities that emerge from this new normal.

Managing partner of NIO Capital, Ian Zhu, believes that the success of NIO Capital’s first USD fund indicates that even in the midst of uncertainties regarding the global economy, investors still have faith in China and are confident about the potential for China's economic growth and structural transformation. This is true of fields like automotive transportation, artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, new consumerism and corporate services, and shows recognition of NIO Capital's investment capabilities in these areas.

For Nathan Yu, industrial perspectives and entrepreneurial outlooks provide investment institutions with more advantages. The success of the USD fund allows NIO Capital to further expand its modes of investment, while also helping integrate domestic and foreign resources investees and facilitating the creation of new business structures for portfolio companies.

目前,蔚来资本美元基金已完成多笔投资,其中包括已开放自动驾驶出租试点服务并完成百万公里路测的小马智行(Pony.ai), 拥有车规级可量产的Mpilot系列自动驾驶解决方案的初速度(Momenta),全球首家实现规模化持续盈利的移动出行平台嘀嗒出行(Dida),打造出全球首款图像级激光雷达系统的图达通(Innovusion),获全国首张干线物流自动驾驶重卡测试许可证并已发布L3自动样车的嬴彻科技(Inceptio),两轮车换电领域的领军企业易骑换电(Yiqi),领先的油电一体化出行能源新基础设施网络能链集团(Newlinks)等高速成长的优秀企业。蔚来资本美元基金运作一年多以来,已有多个投资项目完成后轮融资。
