We’re Cameron and Bradley Priest, Founders, CEO and CTO of Tradegecko. Ask us Anything!

Hi TIA!

I’m Cameron Priest, the CEO and Co-Founder of TradeGecko, a SaaS startup based in Singapore, we’re building the platform for commerce companies to scale their businesses (manage inventory and orders, connect to marketplaces, set up online shops etc.,). We’ve raised over $10m so far and have ambitions to be the biggest global tech company based out of Singapore (and then the world… ‘insert maniacal laugh here’).

I’ve never worked a corporate job, did a bit of importing and online retailing as a teen and then co-founded a web dev agency after Uni, had a couple of other failed startups in NZ along the way. With TradeGecko, we’re serving thousands of customers in over 100 countries and helping our customers process billions worth of sales on our commerce platform.

Feel free to ask me anything, but a few topics of interest include:

• Building a Global company in Singapore (vs a local or regional one)
• Raising that first round of funding (and second, and third)?
• Should I move to the Valley (probably)?
• How does raising in Singapore compare to raising in the valley?

• Getting into the technology scene (as an entrepreneur, engineer or whatever)
• Finding talented people and helping them grow
• Turning ideas into tangible products
• What it’s like starting a business with your brother 😉

Ask Away!
