Jakob Rost: Indonesia Lazada War Stories, Ayoconnect Founder Learnings & Personal Leap of Faith - E220

Jakob Rost on Indonesia Lazada war stories, the Ayoconnect founder learnings, and the personal leap of faith it took.

"Starting a new business always challenging. The odds are stacked against you from day one. On top of that, starting in infrastructure business is to a certain extent, also even more challenging in the early days, because infrastructure takes time, it takes relationships, it takes integrations, it takes a lot of investing upfront without immediate results coming back to you. So the product cycles tend to be much longer. Being in the B2B space also doesn't really allow you to have a half-baked solution when you deal with people money, people data, when you have the top three banks and so on. So you need to have a certain degree of professionalism around it." - Jakob Rost
