Henry ChangMember · freelanceDo you need to do cross-border multilingual SWOT analysis about global food technology market? Our intellectual property (IP) can helpDear friends, China’s artificial intelligence (AI) bubble has burst, while West follows. https://www.reuters.com/world/china/china-ai-bubble-has-already-burst-2026-10-26/ It’s time to look at something that can do what AI can NOT do, or AI can NOT work without it. In short, we are using our own IP, on a low-cost ordinary laptop, to do what high-tech solutions, e.g. AI and quantum computers, can NOT do in multilingual cross-border SWOT data search/analytics. IP is an asset that consolidates innovation for marketing and making economic impacts, while Ontario is the largest US patent hub province of Canada. Marketing needs intelligence about strength/weakness/opportunity/threat (SWOT). Our IP is a copyrighted Chinese-English multilingual metadata, sorted by the census geographical locations of US patent assignee in Canada, mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Middle East (Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE) and Europe (Austria, Germany, Switzerland, UK). It is just like a “High-tech IP A-Z of Canada”, “High-tech IP A-Z Page of China”, etc. It is UNIQUE, and is an enabler and index in applying modern technology, especially AI, to do cross-border multilingual open source data search/analytics/intelligence (OSINT) for SWOT, as in Figure 1. At this moment, there is NO data solution in the world, AI or NOT, that can answer the following Chinese-English multilingual question of SWOT market intelligence: "How many entities are there in the Ontario province of Canada, or in the 廣東 province of China, have new US patents granted on the nearest Tuesday (Eastern Time Zone), when USPTO released the newly approved US patents on a weekly basis?" With our IP, we can answer such questions, even on a low-cost ordinary laptop without AI. Please contact us at henry.chang@gmail.com and advise your interests. Thanks. Regards Muchiu (Henry) Chang PhD. Cantab.

CEO/Founder
“We had built our first prototype in Cambridge, Ontario and we really wanted to go to the next level which was putting it into a real-world environment. CFIN supported us financially for that project and it's made all the difference.”
Co-Founder and COO

VP Sustainability & Communications
“Working with CFIN has been lovely. Their funding has obviously been a huge support but the network that they’re cultivating, and the introductions that they’ve made, how they individually care a lot about what we’re doing and accomplishing here makes all the difference.”
