Wrapped up the speech and networking at HCPP in Prague, and back on the move. A couple days to squeeze in a quick trip to Copenhagen, Denmark. Why? For our new loadpipe ecommerce protocol, want to get some face time with a few of the people in the growing team. Rented a space at Rebel Coworking Space and dove deep …
Traveling to Prague, in the Midst of a Transition
On the road again. My late Uncle Bill always felt that when he read my blog and my travels, rest in peace Uncle Bill. Leaving the wife and kids (again) as the theme of “getting back on the road and business development” trend I set a couple months ago continues. This time it is Chiang Mai to Bangkok to Vienna, …
Nomad Capitalist Live in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Again, more networking going. Andrew Henderson started up Nomad Capitalist blog the same year as Global From Asia – 2013!

Slowly Getting Back Into The Flow: Cross Border Summit Preparations
As I begin to type this out, I hesitate to use the word covid anymore, but just have to. It seriously damaged our cross-border e-commerce community and still putting the pieces back together.

Bangkok Factory Trade Show (Is It Like Canton Fair?)
On the road AGAIN – and as always – here’s a vlog of the Mega show BKK deep in the summer of 2023.

Canton Fair Trip – April 2023
Another Canton Fair down in the history books – and our Global From Asia community and crew was able to host another tour. First since Covid came down upon us – things were warming back up – border issues/ visa issues – so the group was less than expected – yet we made the most of it. Also working closely …

Slowly “Warming Back Up” (Cross Border Summit 2023 coming)
Last vlog was about getting back to “normal” in 2023 and networking and attending events. Now we are going to take a big risk and make a leap for our “annual” (well up until covid) Cross Border Summit – to go ahead and move it from China to Thailand and host it in Chiang Mai on November 16th and 17th, …
