Entrepreneurship is About How Hard You Can Get Hit And Keep Going

Adlin Yusman, Managing Director, Endeavor Malaysia

Entrepreneurship is About How Hard You Can Get Hit And Keep Going

“The business is bad, but I think you’re a good entrepreneur. I can give you the money, but what you’ll never get back is the time you spent building a business that was wrong for you”, that was what an investor told Adlin Yusman when he was looking to raise $2 million for one of his previous startups.

In this episode of Raise Your Game, Adlin Yusman, experienced tech founder and the Managing Director of the Malaysian office of high-impact entrepreneurship network Endeavor, speaks to us about lessons learnt from his past mistakes and failures, managing relationships with investors, board members, and co-founders, and when to stop or leave your business versus when to keep going.

We also get into why entrepreneurship is a war, not a battle.
