Innovation Works, former head of Google China Kai-Fu Lee's own venture platform company, has invested $4 million in a dozen projects covering areas of mobile Internet, Internet consumption, e-commerce and cloud computing, Lee said at his company's one-year anniversary celebration in Beijing on Wednesday.

At the new site, where his 200-person team planned to move, Lee unveiled five projects, which included a smart phone operating system based on Android for Chinese users, a software assistant for Android phones, an analytics tool for mobile developers in China, a photo processing tool for mobile phones and an SNS and Web-based games publishing tool targeting the global market.

Lee emphasized that mobile Internet would still be the priority. "We put 75 percent of our energy on mobile computing, as this is the top priority, which also contains the biggest opportunities. Fifteen percent of our energy will be put into e-commerce and 10 percent for cloud computing," he said.

Instead of generating ideas internally and investing in external projects, Innovation Works plans to put more emphasis on seeking external projects as it would be more efficient, Lee said when summarizing the gains of the past year and his aims for the future. [Full story]
