Joining Chinaccelerator has been the right move – fast track + structure for my …
I Love Focus! WeiboAgent covered by Tech in Asia!
I think the number 1 feedback most friends would give me is if I focused on just 1 thing, I would be able to make that a huge success. I think it was because maybe I didn’t know what I wanted to do. Maybe because I was too “young and inexperienced” and was greedy, wanting to have a bit of …

Blogging from “inside the dungeon”, Recap First week at China Accelerator

Going to be Incubated! @WeiboAgent is in next class at @Chinaccelerator
