Losing Three Co-Founders in the First 12 Months, The Mistake He Made Following The Silicon Valley Playbook and How He Turned Being Sued Into A Competitive Advantage

Today, I'm speaking with San Kim, CEO and founder of Swing, the largest shared micromobility operator in Asia - and that’s saying a lot because Asia is one of the world's largest shared micromobility markets, expected to reach nearly $24 billion by 2031.

We talked about:

• How he went from having three co-founders to being a solo founder in the first 12 months .

• How being sued by a competitor and not being able to raise capital actually turned into a competitive advantage.

• The huge relief he felt in letting go of Asian cultural expectations about what it means to be CEO

• Why he took a risk and chose a wannabe hip hop artist as his COO instead of the candidate with the blue-chip resume

Enjoy my conversation with San!
