Silicon Valley Funding News - Week of August 17 2020

View this email in your browser

My partner, Alfred Chuang, was featured on Bloomberg’s Podcast “The Greatest CEO” this past week. 

My favorite takeaways from his podcast:

  • How Alfred's visa got denied to attend high school in the US. 
  • How a box of chocolate brought him back.
  • What makes a great CEO and his own American dream.
  • Race Capital investment thesis and our vision for the future.
  • His views on the Hong Kong situation, the US immigration, and student visa ban situations

My favorite quote:
Humility is the biggest thing for being a CEO. Once you become cocky, so full of yourself and become complacent with your success, that will be the beginning of the end.

Check it out on Bloomberg.
