Rising Giants N.50 - Kay Woo, Founder, MVLChain, TADA & Onion Mobility Rising Giants

Today on the show we have a very special guest to mark our 50th episode of Rising Giants. Kay Woo is the founder of MVLChain, TADA and Onion Mobility. TADA, which is powered by MVLChain, is Southeast Asia’s first blockchain-based zero-commission ride-hailing service having launched in Singapore and Cambodia. They closed a $5m Series A investment at the end of 2019 to further strengthen their position as innovators in the mobility sector in Southeast Asia, led by South Korean VC firm,  SV Investment, alongside two of the largest car parts manufacturers, Central and SIMWON Inc. Onion Mobility, a new venture of MVL/TADA, was recently launched in Cambodia marking the first electric tuk-tuks to be made available in the market.

What we dive into:

- Kay's ambitious goals to see Onion Mobility sell 10,000 e-tuk tuks and 20,000 e-motorbikes in the market by 2023

- How TADA is competing with Grab and PassApp in Cambodia, by offering zero-commission rides

- Why Kay sees Cambodia as a perfect launchpad market for Southeast Asia: young demographics, technology adoption, consumer flexibility etc.
