"If you could be the Wright Brothers at the beginning of the 20th century, would you take the risk of flying? To me, the answer is obvious."

Tony Han, Founder and CEO of WeRide, spoke with Ken Wong, President of Lenovo's Solutions and Services group, for an episode of Perspective+, a series that spotlights industry leaders driving real-world digital transformation.

In the interview, Tony shared how he built WeRide into a global autonomous technology leader, now present across over 40 cities in 11 countries. Drawing on his academic background and experience as a former chief scientist at one of the world's leading technology companies, Tony reflected on the bold risks, strategic partnerships, and agile execution needed to turn autonomous driving from vision into reality.

The conversation aptly took place inside WeRide’s latest-generation Robotaxi GXR, built on HPC 3.0 – a platform jointly developed with Lenovo and NVIDIA that has reduced autonomous driving suite cost by 50%, underscoring the role of strong partnerships to WeRide's success.
