iMile was founded in 2017 to bring innovation and inspiration to the logistics and supply chain industry, as well as solve fundamental problems in the industry with creativity and confidence.
Huang studied biomedical engineering and later joined Chinese telecommunications giant, Huawei, which is when she was relocated to the Middle East and Africa. This enabled her to gain insights into regional markets.
She went on to join Chinese eCommerce leader, Alibaba, as the CTO of their cloud computing joint venture in the Middle East and was responsible for building the first public cloud computing center in Dubai. These experiences led to her deep understanding of digitalisation and its importance in solving old problems through new technology.
In 2017, Huang was witnessing the boom of ecommerce globally. She noticed, however, that cash on delivery and last mile delivery were causing real problems for many eCommerce players.
After co-founding iMile in 2017, Huang has played a pivotal role in the rapid development of the company. With the onset of COVID-19, she assisted in the company’s quick response to enhance logistics services despite the circumstances.
