AsianFin – Lewis Hong, the founding partner of FPSolutions VC and Co-Founder of Douyin’s hard tech media platform "Xiao Qiao’s Hard Tech," shared his perspective on the qualities necessary for entrepreneurial success at CES 2025 on Friday.

Hong emphasized that entrepreneurs must cultivate a strong sense of long-term focus while maintaining flexibility and patience. Citing examples of Elon Musk and Jensen Huang, Hong noted that both icons achieved their legendary status after two decades of relentless dedication and consistent efforts within their respective fields.

"What people often miss is the unwavering commitment and stability they demonstrated over the past 20 years, working tirelessly toward their goals," Hong said, underscoring the importance of persistence in realizing entrepreneurial dreams.
