Chow Shing Yuk is cofounder, chairman and CEO of logistics and delivery giant Lalatech Holdings.

It has a presence in 400 cities across Asia, Latin America and EMEA, operating under the brand Huolala in mainland China and as Lalamove outside the region.

Chow was a professional poker player and a consultant at Bain & Co. before he started Lalatech in 2013, betting his poker winnings of $3.8 million.

Lalatech disrupted the logistics industry by digitizing the booking of freight and trucking services, which were traditionally done through call centers.

Lalatech filed for a Hong Kong IPO in 2023 and 2024, but applications lapsed.
