苏春园
Chase Su (苏春园) is the founder and CEO of Guandata (观远数据), a Chinese business intelligence and data analytics company. He established Guandata as an alternative path to becoming what industry observers call the "Palantir of China," arguing the approach would grow out of specific industry scenarios rather than replicate Palantir directly . Under his leadership, Guandata has positioned itself around "modern BI" — moving beyond traditional reporting toward broader business value — and in 2022 released its Guandata 5.0 integrated intelligent analytics platform . Su runs the company with an intensive customer-success culture: he convenes weekly Friday morning meetings where executives and frontline staff review all critical client feedback, regardless of where they are located . He has been a visible voice in the BI sector since at least 2019, when he began framing how intelligent technology would reshape the industry . The available material comes from Linear Capital coverage spanning 2022–2026; elsewhere's corpus does not contain biographical details such as education or prior career history.
