Coming to Asia in 1995 for the first time, my eyes opened as wide as saucers. I saw people breaking the rules and getting the same results at a fraction of the price. This is my Dorothy from Wizard of Oz-moment, “Toto, I've got a feeling we are not in West Auckland anymore.” Since then, it felt like I have a front-row seat to the disruption happening in Asia.
DANCING AT THE EDGE OF GREATNESS
In this video, Joseph Schooling and Piyush Gupta share that it is a fight to stay at the top. Piyush talked about how the future of finance is changing, they are no longer just competing with other banks. They are figuring out how to be the best financial services tech company in the world. That means going head-to-head against tech companies such as Alibaba, Amazon and Google. Banks fighting against non-banks.
OUR MOMENT OF TRUTH
In 2014, we had our own moment of disruption. I could see a cliff coming. We were doubling our business year on year, but we realised we were no longer fighting traditional competitors. We were going head-to-head against mighty tech titans dressed up as grandma. Linkedin was doing what we were doing. At scale. For free.
Where do we go next? Do we turn a blind eye and go back to the status quo? Or do we take the first step over the edge and seize the opportunity to be great?
