Kickstart.my Co-founder Maverick Foo Chia Yong gave a talk at UTAR Sungai Long Campus on 28 October 2015.
“The foundation of a successful business starts with an idea, not the number of connections, or the sum of capital you possess,” said Foo.
Foo also advised the students to leave their comfort zone, be proactive, bursh up on their communication skills, develop their ideas, and never be shy to interact with people to understand the needs in the current market.
“Never stop acquiring new knowledge, keep arming yourself with new knowledge, as it not only adds value to youself as an entreprenuer, but it also shows that you’re adaptable and open to new ideas,” he added.
This talk was organised by UTAR’s Department of Consultancy and Commercialisation (DCC).
