DayDayUp, established in 2015, functions as a technology accelerator and business connection platform headquartered in Beijing, China. The company was founded by Bo Yiqun and Yueyi Zhu. Before creating DayDayUp, Bo Yiqun served as the President of the Great Wall Club (GWC) from 2009 to 2015, where he was instrumental in expanding it into a global mobile internet business network. He holds a Master's degree in management from the University of Paris and is fluent in Chinese, English, and French. Yueyi Zhu, prior to DayDayUp, co-founded Yongche, a car-hailing service, and later founded Reflower, a floral and gift company.
The firm's primary mission is to connect Chinese and global innovators, including large companies, investors, and entrepreneurial teams. It operates in the business-to-business consulting and office services industries. DayDayUp generates revenue by providing managed co-working spaces and offering accelerator programs. These co-working spaces, located in cities like Beijing and Wuxi, provide members with amenities such as high-speed internet, conference rooms, and office supplies, fostering a collaborative community. The business model also includes accelerator programs, like "GoChina," designed to assist global companies in entering the Chinese market by offering business advice, facilitating meetings with investors and local partners, and providing operational support. As a partner of Enterprise Singapore's Global Innovation Alliance (GIA) and Zhongguancun Science Park (Z-Park), DayDayUp helps Singaporean companies expand into China and vice versa.
A key component of its service is the INNOEYE global innovation discovery engine, which focuses on sectors like AI, IoT, Blockchain, Cloud Computing, 5G, and Mobile Internet. This platform creates an ecosystem for corporations, startups, and investors to connect. Since its inception, DayDayUp has accelerated over 200 startups, with a significant portion being international. The company has secured $3.45M in funding through several rounds, backed by investors such as DL Capital, Inveno Technology, and ThunderSoft.
