Berwin Tanco is the Founder and CEO of Ekta Chain and Entire Land. He listed his first company on the NASDAQ at the age of 21 and now runs a half-billion-dollar Real Estate empire. He also owns an Island in Indonesia and recently bought the EKTA Tower in Kuala Lumpur - a 100 Million Building located right besides the Petronas Towers - that he plans to transform into a "small city".

In this episode, Berwin shares his origin story from competitive swimming in the Philippines to the dot-com boom days in Silicon Valley. He explains the vision behind Ekta's fractional real estate NFT marketplace and how he is democratizing Real Estate investing by helping people buy properties around the world with as little as 100$.
