Rod’s last album, Nostalgia, topped the chart 2 weeks in a row and cemented his status as one of the pioneers of “pain music.” He first erupted onto the scene with the viral 4x-platinum “Heart On Ice,” which culminated a prolific run of 3 full-length projects in a 12 month span. His debut album, Pray 4 Love, was certified platinum within a year of release, propelled by the TikTok crossover moment “Rags2Riches,” and the follow up, SoulFly, became Rod’s first-ever #1 Billboard charting album. Known for his fiercely loyal fanbase, Rod’s extensive touring history includes 2 consecutive nationwide arena tours, grossing tens of millions of dollars on the road.

A History of Success

Since its founding in 2014, XbotPark has successfully incubated over 80 companies, including six unicorns valued at $1 billion or more, such as NARWAL, HAI ROBOTICS, CiDi, EcoFlow.

“Historically, Chinese products prioritized the domestic market before global expansion. Today, our startups are designing products for global audience from the very beginning, incorporating a deep understanding of regional consumer needs,” explained XbotPark founder, Professor Zexiang Li. He emphasized the significance of CES as a platform for startups: “While Narwal and EcoFlow were already well-known in China, CES played a crucial role in their global recognition. This year, we are empowering more startups to leverage CES to connect with customers, gain media exposure, and propel themselves to the forefront of their industries.”

Removing Barriers to Turn Dreams into Reality

XbotPark has cultivated a robust ecosystem designed to empower early-stage entrepreneurs to overcome the key challenges of “product definition” and “mass production” in their entrepreneurial journeys.

Leveraging its network of bases across China, XbotPark offers mentorship programs to guide early-stage founders in developing user-oriented mindsets, refining product definitions, and strategizing development and prototyping.

In addition, XbotPark offers XCM (XbotPark Collaborative Manufacture), a one-stop manufacturing solution powered by a network of over 100 supply chain partners.

“XbotPark empowers startups to develop truly original products that often define entirely new categories, pushing the boundaries of technological complexity,” said Professor Zexiang Li. “This commitment to innovation requires a robust support infrastructure, such as XCM, which helps startups overcome manufacturing hurdles. At CES 2025, we look forward to connecting with international partners who can benefit from these valuable resources.”

XCM has empowered over 50 startups to ship a total of 260,000 units, maintaining a 100% on-time delivery rate for crowdfunded projects and significantly accelerating their product development cycles.

For example, LiberLive’s success exemplifies how XCM can help startups scale rapidly. By utilizing XCM’s resources, LiberLive rapidly scaled production from a few hundred to tens of thousands of units, capturing a key market opportunity.
