Career
Early professional experience
In 2024, Jiang joined Huawen Futures as a markets analyst, where he analysed fund-of-funds structures and assisted in pitching strategies to high-net-worth clients. He also practiced trading skills on AmplifyME, honing his order execution and real-time market monitoring abilities.
In 2025, he worked as a private equity analyst at Orient Securities in Shanghai. He conducted due diligence on more than five semiconductor manufacturing and biotechnology companies, prepared investment memoranda, and contributed to a buy‑and‑build platform analysis for a semiconductor manufacturing target.
JLX Capital
In January 2026, Jiang founded JLX Capital, an investment firm focused on minority investments in artificial intelligence and frontier technology sectors. He serves as founder and president, leading investment research, deal sourcing, and portfolio management. The firm's first fund closed its initial tranche within three months and reportedly backed several AI startups with valuations exceeding US$100 million. Jiang developed an "ecosystem minority investment" framework that combines capital with expert networks and operational support; the framework has been associated with an average portfolio company valuation increase of approximately 140% (internal estimate).
Hong Kong Investment Association

Under his leadership, the association grew from a university club to a cross‑institutional community of over 100 members (students and young professionals from finance, computer science, and engineering). The association organises panel discussions, speaker sessions, and an annual investment competition.
