Abstract |
What are the challenges in growing a start-up?
And how does an entrepreneur address these
growth issues and yet overcome a difficult
macroeconomic environment at the same time?
What are the specific strategies to implement
during harsh economic times? Malek will share
his experience of being an entrepreneur trying
to grow a business during two difficult economic
periods, the Asian financial crisis of 1997-1998
and the current economic recession. Malek
will also share his views on when is the right
time to enter the realm of entrepreneurship,
given the current economic environment.
