Mr. Boyu Hu serves as Partner at XVC. He previously served as Partner at Blue Lake Capital. After two unsuccessful Internet ventures in college, he co-founded China's largest lending software company, Amarsoft (SHE:300380), where he led the development of core product lines and helped the company to achieve dominance in a highly competitive market before it eventually went public.

Boyu has also worked for Morgan Stanley Strategic Investments Asia (the firm's VC arm) and GSR Ventures, a leading VC in China. Boyu is a geek as well as an "indoorsman." He got his MBA from the Kellogg School on the shore of beautiful Lake Michigan, but he spent most of his spare time either doing research in his room or auditing classes that he wasn't in.
