>Shao and I had lots of experience in starting companies, product management, management consulting and developing
Maybe this is just me being nitpicky but "lots of experience" to me says that this person is an expert in their field. Guy obviously has done great things, but I wouldn't say he is an expert. Flawed as it may be, the 10,000 hour rule I think is a good rule of thumb to determine expert status and is roughly 10 years of full time intensive work, which he doesn't really have.
This is part of a wider issue with the tech community that seems hypocritical. In one breath many in the tech world say that "results are what matter" and that age and experience are nothing but numbers. Then in the next breath these same people will tout about all the experience they have and how they are experts and have this and that experience.
Can't have it both ways though. Either experience qua experience is worth something or it isn't. I would generally fall on the side of it isn't, so lets just not even mention it.
