Home robotics maker Trifo joins wave of Chinese Silicon Valley start-ups returning home to fulfill AI dreams

Even with Trifo

Silicon Valley start-up founder Zhe Zhang is part of a rising wave of innovators and entrepreneurs migrating their tech and operations to China in order to fulfill their global ambitions.

Just two years after Zhang, a Chinese national, set up home robotics outfit Trifo he decided to expand his business to Beijing and manufacturing hub Shenzhen. Like others, Zhang believed Shenzhen, with its comprehensive supply chain and logistics support, would help translate his tech dream into a tangible reality.
