In this episode, your hosts, Jason and Scott, together with Martin Papp discuss:

Martin’s diverse background, including 10 years in China
Moving to China after the 2008 recession, inspired by "Outliers"
Meeting his wife, starting a tea company ‘PAPP'S TEA’ to modernize tea culture
Focusing PAPP's TEA on supplying teas to businesses across China

Key Takeaways:

Martin's decision to move to China during the 2008 recession exemplifies how exploring unfamiliar territories can open up unexpected opportunities.
Recognizing the disconnect between China's traditional tea culture and the growing demand for a more casual, accessible experience, Martin saw an opportunity to modernize the industry.
By choosing to focus PAPP'S TEA on the Chinese market rather than expanding to the U.S., Martin showed how understanding global markets can lead to a strong foothold and significant growth in China.
Martin's willingness to explore unfamiliar markets, such as Costa Rica and Thailand, and his ability to navigate cultural and regulatory differences, have given him a competitive edge in identifying and capitalizing on real estate opportunities worldwide.

"You just [need] to have the mental ambition, to take the time to go find the answers, to go learn it.” — Martin Papp
