Founder & CTO of Singapore based startup Shopbust.com. I offer my two cents to Asian Entrepreneurs (others welcome too!) who wants to bootstrap their way to a MVP (Minimal Viable Product) and make the right technological decisions early to avoid future pitfalls and challenges.

I run a bootstrapped startup with over $1MM in revenue with my best friends.
