The Harvard founder who did the opposite of what he learnt

 

 Synopsis:
Kelvin would like us to know that he is not the Kelvin Teo on Wikipedia, who is also a Malaysian, management consultant and entrepreneur, but won a reality dating show "Love Me Do". Kelvin survived in Brazil with no money, card and friends, because he found out at the boarding gate that he needed a visa to transit in Canada.
Kelvin did taekwondo and sparring when he was young, because he came from a public school in Malaysia with gangsters. Now, he would just run. The founding of Funding Societies was an accident, because neither Kelvin nor his co-founder Reynold were planning a start-up. Their venture was sparked by a mixture of inspiration and frustration, influenced by what he calls the PayPal mafia. Today, Funding Societies is the largest digital finance platform for SMEs in Southeast Asia.

Speaker

  • Kelvin Teo, Co-founder & Group CEO, Funding Societies.
