With less than 5% of startups likely to be successful, building one is no easy feat, especially when the odds are stacked against new founders. Just this year, the Malaysia Digital Economy Blueprint (MyDigital) was launched, where one of the many goals is to catalyse 5,000 startups within the next 5 years. Such lofty ambitions require both private and public sectors to band together in nurturing founders to bring their ideas and businesses to the next stage. This is a vision shared by business expert and Super Scaling founder, Alvin Poh, who currently coaches and mentors close to 50 founders of six to seven-figure ventures from Malaysia, Singapore and the United Kingdom.
