MIOTtech, legally known as Yingtou Information Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., operates as a specialized data and software provider with a focus on sustainability. The company was established in 2016 by co-founders Jason Tu and Tao Liu. Their journey began after identifying a gap in the market due to the limitations of existing analytical tools in financial institutions. Jason Tu, the CEO, brings a background in both banking at Standard Chartered and experience with tech startups like Robinhood, complemented by an MBA from Stanford. This blend of finance and tech experience was driven by the realization that a lack of transparency in the market created significant investment risks. Co-founder and CTO Tao Liu contributes deep technical expertise, having worked on large-scale data infrastructure at Oracle and holding a master’s in computer science from Cornell University. Operating on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, MIOTtech generates revenue primarily through subscriptions and licensing for its data and analytics tools. Its clientele consists of financial institutions, corporations, and governments across Asia, with a strategic expansion into Southeast Asia. The firm’s core B2B revolves around leveraging artificial intelligence, satellite imagery, and proprietary methodologies to process vast amounts of data. This enables the company to provide comprehensive Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) data, climate risk analytics, and carbon accounting solutions. The company’s flagship product is ESGhub, an all-in-one platform designed to help organizations manage sustainability-related functions. This software simplifies complex processes like ESG reporting and carbon footprint accounting for B2Bes and their supply chains. For financial institutions, the platform offers tools to analyze portfolio risks and align investment strategies with evolving climate and ESG regulations. Beyond its software, MIOTtech also provides advisory services to assist clients in developing ESG strategies and data models. A significant milestone was the launch of its AMI (Advanced Market Intelligence) platform in 2018, which visualizes relationships and market trends from millions of company profiles and online narratives. The company has secured multiple funding rounds from prominent investors including J.P. Morgan, GIC, HSBC, Moody’s, and Horizons Ventures, which has fueled its product development and market penetration.
