What happens when the guy writing the rulebook decides to tear it up and start his own game?
We caught up with Mohammad Ridzuan Abdul Aziz, who's had one hell of a career arc. He went from watching over Malaysia's markets at Bursa to jumping headfirst into the startup world - insurtech, digital banking, compliance tech, you name it. But this isn't your usual "I quit my corporate job to follow my dreams" story.
Ridzuan's got this unique angle: he thinks like a regulator when he builds companies, and it turns out that's actually a massive advantage. We talked about why he's convinced B2B is the way to go in Malaysia (spoiler: B2C is brutal here), why everyone's obsession with becoming the next unicorn is kind of missing the point, and how things like AI and tokenization are not just creating more noise but genuinely changing the game.
The conversation gets real about what it's like building in smaller markets, how easy it is to get trapped thinking too locally, and why Malaysian entrepreneurs might actually have more going for them than most people realize.
