Up The Ante - #Startup Confessions 4

We’re living in a very exciting era where regulators are experiencing challenges to fit new businesses into their system. As a startup, should you be worried? This week’s Startup Confessions, we have two fairly successful Malaysian companies who have expanded beyond our borders to talk about blind spots they have missed. These blind spots include getting wrong investors on board and firing employees.
