Changsheng Yao
姚昌晟
Changsheng Yao is the founder and CEO of Hyde Hydrogen Energy (海德氢能), a green hydrogen company . A Tsinghua Ph.D., he has spent much of his early company-building life on the road—sleeping at airports and traveling through deserts with company brochures in hand, as 真格基金 described in a late-2025 profile . That same report noted Saudi Aramco's first Asia-Pacific hydrogen investment came after Yao made an early-morning flight to pitch the energy giant in Saudi Arabia. He has since appeared on larger stages: he spoke on China's hydrogen development at a COP29 side event in Baku in November 2024, and was invited to the Future Investment Initiative summit in Riyadh in late 2025 .
