凯鹏华盈合伙人:执着才能向前

Chanelle Bessette 2013年11月12日
凯鹏华盈的合伙人迈克•阿博特说,生活中总是充满着各种各样的挑战。环境风云变幻的时候,唯有执着于自己的目标,才能不断前行。

    7. 如果全世界所有地方任意选择,你最想生活在哪里?

    阿根廷的巴塔哥尼亚。几年前,我曾有机会在那里徒步、骑山地车,还在河里玩过竹筏漂流,那里的确是一片神奇的地方。另外,重返尼泊尔天波切的佛教寺院对我来说也颇有吸引力。

    8. 你最大的成就是什么?

    毫无疑问,我最大的成就就是当上了父亲。

    工作上,我曾有机会参与到不同的团队中,开发了一系列消费者和企业至今还在使用的产品。比如,我在家创办的康普斯特软件公司(Composite Software)曾独立经营了12年,员工人数超过100名。直到最近,这家公司才被思科(Cisco)所收购;另外我还曾帮助Palm公司重新架构、打造和推出webOS系统,也曾在Twitter公司中快速扩充工程队伍,以便稳定公司的基础架构等等。我很幸运能拥有这些机遇。

    9.你最仰慕的商界或科技界的名人是谁?为什么?

    我最仰慕的是比尔•坎贝尔【财捷集团(Intuit)董事长及前首席执行官,如今是苹果公司(Apple)董事会成员】。坎贝尔非常具有同理心、充满关怀,也十分关心员工和公司。他是位了不起的人,他的观点和指导总是那么地与众不同。我非常荣幸地能有他这样的朋友和导师。

    10. 最令你感到兴奋的科技领域是什么?

    深层学习。这是一种可以在日常生活、数位医疗以及其他新的实例应用中实现人工智能的新途径。深层学习是机器学习研究的新领域,目的就是为了让机器学习研究更为接近最初始的目标:完全实现人工智能。(财富中文网)

    7. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you be?

    Patagonia, Argentina. I had the opportunity to trek, mountain bike, and river raft there a couple of years ago -- it is an amazing part of the planet! However, returning to the Buddhist monastery in Tengboche in Nepal also is quite appealing.

    8. What is your greatest achievement?

    Fatherhood -- without a doubt.

    Professionally, I've had the chance to be part of multiple teams that have built products now in use by both consumers and companies. From building an enterprise business

    out of my house, Composite Software, which remained independent with over 100 employees for 12 years until recently Cisco (CSCO) acquired, to helping redefine, build, ship webOS at Palm, and to rapidly expand the engineering team at Twitter to stabilize the infrastructure -- I have been very fortunate to have had these opportunities.

    9. What business or technology person do you admire most? Why?

    Bill Campbell. [The chairman and former CEO of Intuit (INTU) and current Apple (AAPL) board member.] Bill embodies deep empathy, deep experience, and deep care for people and companies. He is an amazing person and can provide insights and guidance unlike any other person that I have ever met. I am privileged to be able to call him a friend and mentor.

    10. What technology sector excites you most?

    Deep learning, which is a new approach to achieving artificial intelligence with applications in daily living, digital health, and other new use cases. Deep learning is a new area of machine learning research, which has been introduced with the objective of moving machine learning closer to one of its original goals: artificial intelligence.
