Kevin Wang

My guest today is Kevin Wang, Product Manager at a Ride-hailing Company.Kevin’s Asia journey started in his birthplace Nanjing, where he lived until he moved to Sydney when he was 10. Kevin’s career has spanned across Asia, spanning financial payments platforms, a global digital advertising agency, and now SEA’s largest ride-hailing platform.To me, Kevin’s Clout is having the conviction to leverage his language and cultural abilities, whilst being able to successfully build expertise within the technology verticle that cuts across all regions.We talked about Kevin’s China experiences, being a bilingual Chinese-Australian but yet somewhat foreign in his birth country. And we talk about his perspectives as an Asian-Australian who has built a career in tech, on Australian innovation and the role that Asian-Australians play to uplift the Australian tech workforce.Welcome to Clout Asia, where we ask Australians to take us on their journey to Asia capability by choosing a food, song, show, and person that captures the essence of their experience - to help us understand, what being an Aussie with Clout, is all about.———Nanjing · Sydney · Beijing · Chengdu · Singapore———FOOD: Bread soaked in fishhead soup 鱼头泡饼 Yú tóu pào bǐngMUSIC: Chengdu by Zhao Lei 趙雷《成都》 SHOW: Good Life《生活万岁》Shēnghuó wànsuìPERSON: Kevin's Kiwi manager who hired him to move to China This is a public episode.
