For Richard Zhou, the connecting line between the internet, connected devices, blockchain, and real-world assets lies in the way he builds. Since entering business during the internet era of the late 1990s, the serial entrepreneur has moved into each new category with the same objective: identify useful infrastructure early, then develop it within the governance and regulatory structures needed for long-term operation.
That approach has led Zhou to found three publicly listed companies and raise nearly C$30 million from hundreds of investors across his ventures. Today, as founder, president, and chief executive officer of Blockchain Venture Capital Inc. (CSE: BVCI), he is applying that experience to regulated digital-asset services and RWA tokenisation.
