Vidiator and Weardrobe

It's Friday and finally sometime to catch up on both school and startups.

I first talked to Connie Wong, the CEO of Vidiator and President of Hutchison Whampoa USA. Vidiator is the top mobile technology company, competing directly with Microsoft and beating them. She emphasized a lot on the importance of execution and team. Business cannot be emotional according to Connie and this is especially the case when it comes to layoffs. Apart from that, it's extremely important to think positively. Sometimes one has to try doing things before one knows whether one can do it or not. So never say never!

Afterwards, met up with 2 founders of Weardrobe, a social platform for women to share their love of fashion through photos. I think they are up to something and I personally really like this space as I think there are still lots of rooms for people to make money in it. Rich and Suzanne are very committed to its cause and everyone should keep an eye on this startup!
