006 Paypal, Ebay, the story of China with Fintech expert ALAN TIEN

We talk to Alan Tien, an experienced senior executive in Internet, e-commerce, Online Payments, Emerging Markets (APAC), and Strategy. He has deep experience in Product Management, rooted in a strong understanding of technology. He has led teams including PayPal into China with eBay in the early 2000s.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What is the real story behind what happened when eBay went to China
  • What is the most common business model that is being utilized in China
  • What companies such as Stripe and Facebook face when going into Asian markets
  • What are some of the Financial Technology that China has adopted that the West has not
  • Who are some of the real disruptors in Financial Technology

I would like to make a special thanks to Wendy Xue. Without her, I would never have met Alan. And without him, much of what has happened with Silicon Valley could not have happened.
