Linking Asia and the World

Hari Krishnan, the Managing director for LinkedIn in Asia Pacific and Japan, comes on the Breakfast Grille to talk about the company's prospects in the emerging markets, which include Malaysia. 

Linkedin is a professional social network, with over 200 million members and boasts a joining rate of 2 members per second.
Among the discussion points are:

- Plans for the emerging markets, which currently make up about 8% of the NYSE-listed parent company's revenue. He also talks about plans for the Malaysian market as well. 

- He also talk about their recently revamped search engine and the response to it. 

- LinkedIn's credibility among both potential employers and employees. He admits that it is impossible to check every single profile, but they do have tools to make sure fraudulent accounts are reported and removed. 

- He also says that localisation goes beyond just changing the sites language. It is also about understanding.

- He also talks about whether parent LinkedIn can sustain the good growth it saw in its latest fourth quarter.
