In 2009, Jim pioneered the world-1st 2-axis angular measuring instruments embedded with ultra-high precision MEMS technology, which greatly contributed to the precision engineering, metrology and defence industries, as these devices have been evidently used by some of the world’s most technologically advanced companies, research laboratories and government institutions such as NASA, Airbus, Lockheed Martin, U.S. Air Force, US Naval Research Laboratory, Space X , Mazak, DMG Mori Seiki, Intel, Siemens AG, Mitsubishi Heavy Industry, Honda, BMW, NASA Jet Propulsion Lab., MIT Lincoln Lab., Cambridge Cavendish Lab., Brookhaven National Lab., Sandia National Lab., etc. In 2014, he further pioneered world-1st IoT-enabled smart locking devices which found many applications in security and consumer industries. These devices utilize advance encrypted wireless proximity-access and Cloud-based Remote-authorization security technologies, and subsequently the smart luggage lock won world-leading U.S. CES innovation awards 2015 & 2016 and also Japan largest DIY Homecenter New Product Awards 2014 & 2015 in successive years.
In early 2020 during pandemic, under Jim's leadership, he swiftly reconfigure part of his R&D, Supply Chain, Manufacturing capabilities to rapidly develop, file patents, manufacture a new eGeePro® N-95 Reusable Respiratory Face Mask, and thereafter, get tested and certified by accredited 3rd-party international test bodies to timely launch the mask just before the "Circuit Breaker" ended. Subsequently, eGeePro® Respiratory Mask was awarded by Singapore Intellectual Property Agency (IPOS) on Innovation for Humanity Award 2020.
Presently, Jim serves on the Advisory Board for Singapore Manufacturing Standards Committee (2014-2017, re-appointed 2017-2019, 2019-2021 & 2021-2023). In 2009, Dr. Li was invited by the Ministry for Trade & Industry as a resource panel member for the Singapore Government’s Economic Strategies Committee (ESC), sub-committee 4 on Growing Knowledge Capital which was tasked with recommending strategies to enhance the impact of Singapore’s Research, Innovation and Enterprise (RIE) framework. He was a member of Advisory Board for Center of Innovation for Electronics, Nanyang Polytechnic (2012-2016).
Dr Li published numerous papers in the area of new product introduction (NPI) strategy and manufacturing technology at leading international journals. Two of his papers were cited in a whitepaper published in 2014 by a governmental unit under Japan’s Ministry for Economics, Trade and Industry (METI) on policy guiding Japanese promising SMEs to innovate and independently expanding their products and services into global markets instead of conventionally tagging along with their MNCs to internationalise. Since 2006, Dr Li has been a visiting Research Fellow at the Institute for Manufacturing, Cambridge University, UK and presently he is an Honorary Professor at Nottingham University Business School, UK.
Jim’s entrepreneurial endeavor has led to the founding of JSB and its affiliated companies (known as Digipas group ) located at several strategic geographical regions. He brought with him over 20 years of experience in management and technical expertise.
Dr. Zheng graduated with a PhD at Manchester University, UK in 1991 specializing in microelectronic superconductivity, particularly the development and design of MEMS sensors and ASIC fabrication technologies. He has over 20 years of hands-on R&D experience, as Research Engineer at a UK leading Instrument company and later as a Research Scientist, spun off numerous advanced ASICs presently still used by world-leading automotive manufacturers, at the Institute of Microelectronic under ASTAR, the leading Singapore Government Science and Technology Research Agency.
