How To Get A Great Term Sheet with Dawoon Kang Co-Founder of Coffee Meets Bagel

Today we have a chat with one of the co-founders of the innovative sister led dating app Coffee Meets Bagel. 

 

Dawoon Kang and her two sisters Arum and Soo, founded Coffee Meets Bagel as an answer to many of the prevailing male centric, image overloaded apps that weren’t addressing the unique ways in which women prefer to date. Dawoon and her sisters became famous last year for rejecting the largest offer ever made on the popular TV show Shark Tank after they turned down Mark Cuban's $30M offer for their company. 

 

They then went on to raise $7.8M in Series A financing, and with that funding began their international expansion outside the US with Hong Kong as their first overseas market. Prior to CMB, Dawoon lived & worked in Korea, Japan, New York, India & Hong Kong, in a variety of roles that spanned from strategy & business development, marketing, research to investing/finance. 

 

Lets listen into Dawoon interviewed by our Hong Kong chapter director Joshua Steimle.
