Emma Yin
尹乐
Emma Yin is a partner at ZhenFund, where she joined as an investor in 2015 after a summer internship and Stanford graduation, and was promoted to partner by early 2022 at age 30 — making her the firm's youngest partner at that time . Her first IPO came in February 2023 with Hesai Technology, a company she had invested in six years prior . She also backed Black Lake and Polo founder Zhou Yuxiang's earlier venture . In 2023 she was named to Jazzyear's "Enterprise Service Best Investor TOP 5" list, and as of early 2026 she ranked among "Most Promising Female Direct Investment Fund Investors TOP 30" . As 暗涌Waves reported, her rapid ascent coincided with personal upheaval — a cancer diagnosis and divorce in 2022 — which she described as "rebuilding on the ruins after an earthquake," spending 2023 healing through meditation, Burning Man, and stand-up comedy while doubling down on ZhenFund's "invest in people" methodology .
