About Robert:
My very first guest on The One Percent Project is my ex-colleague, Robert Hao, Co-Founder & COO, HYPE Asia. HYPE is a venture builder that helps startups demystify, unlock, and succeed in Asia. Presently, Robert is heading the expansion of Goat into China. Goat is the world's largest sneakers marketplace.
In 2012, he helped form the Asia landing team to expand Airbnb into the APAC region. From 2013-2017, Robert relocated to Beijing to start Airbnb China business, where he led Business Operations & Strategy and Host Community Operations and grew the China team to two hundred strong.
