Eddie Wu is a prominent leader associated with Alibaba Cloud, but this profile does not describe him as the cloud service’s founder. A 2025 Alibaba Group announcement identified him as chairman and CEO of Alibaba Cloud Intelligence.

Cloud and AI leadership

The 2025 Apsara Conference announcement discusses Alibaba Cloud’s cloud and AI direction and quotes Wu in his leadership capacity at that time.

Leadership is not founding

This profile documents a dated executive role. It does not claim that Wu founded Alibaba Cloud or individually created the Qwen model family. Executive titles can change and should be checked against current disclosures.
