Co-founder of MIEA Health, Ho Whei Chern shares three lessons from year one of her journey as a startup entrepreneur.


On the first anniversary of growing my startup, I had coffee with Catherine Yong, Editor of CXpose.tech who asked an intriguing question:


If you knew then, what you know now, what would you do differently?


It was a difficult question to answer. Because the question assumes a certain level of success to be able to dish out advice on pitfalls to avoid. My fledgeling startup is still at the very beginning of a very long journey.


Wanting to be an entrepreneur is different from being an entrepreneur.

Being older and female with children, not being tech- or finance-trained puts me on the tail end of any investor’s list.
