Hitting his 10th year as a startup founder 😄 Syed Ahmad Fuqaha Sd Agil shares some tough lessons learnt, why there is opportunity in the red ocean and with one key piece of advice to the government’s efforts to accelerate the startup ecosystem. “Let startups fail fast, fail cheap.” Elaborating on this he points out that under current funding requirements, founders are expected to give directors guarantee that their debt is secured. This crushes the innovative and bold spirit and only tame ideas get funded, he warns. #foundersjourney #failure #lessonslearnt #enterprise #fleetmanagement #facingreality #leadership

It is not well appreciated that it took Raymond Davadass only seven years to take his GBS business, Daythree Digital to a Bursa Malaysia IPO last July. He just announced his Q1 24 results of US$5.03 mil (RM23.7 mil) revenue with US$500k (RM2.38 mil) in PBT. But our story by Contributing Editor Anandhi Gopinath was not about the numbers but his journey, decision to build his own solutions instead of buy off-the-shelf and advice to entrepreneurs wanting to emulate his (early) success. Lots more to come from Raymond who says Malaysia is tops as a GBS location. Raymond Davadass Daythree Anandhi Gopinath #FounderJourney #BPG #CustomerExperienceManagement #software
