Expanding Tech Company Events and AI Usage in Asia

Terence Lee, Editor-in-chief at Tech in Asia joins us to share his journey of being in the tech scene for so long, and now leading one of the most influential tech publications in Asia. And which covers stories so incisive they often receive cease-and-desist letters. He also was instrumental in getting his team to cover our story of being screwed over by HOOQ, which was published in Mar 2023. Terence gives us a peek into what it’s like, the challenges of investigating startups, and what keeps him and his team going.
