3rd World Startup

Mr. Charlie Liu is our guest in this recording. He is the CEO of Matimco, the country's most extensive lumber company. He shares lessons from more than 50 years of company history. This was recorded in a get-together in Sugbu Study Center and his audience were young men in college. The recording is noisier than usual, and some of the audience questions during the Q&A section might be too faint to hear. The content will more than make up for all of these. Mr. Liu gives his seven principles for success in entrepreneurship. He shares the inspiring story of his father, who came to Cebu with only the clothes on his back and his sleeping mat. He talks about growing up in a business family and raising children to be entrepreneurs. He shares the biggest challenges they faced and the future of the wood business. Plus many other valuable lessons. I hope you learn as much as we did in this conversation with Mr. Charlie Liu. ​ Show notes: 1. Context: Companies they own 2.
