In this episode of The Venture, Andrew Roth shares a conversation with Hugh Yao, CEO and founder of LingoAce, a Singapore-based online language learning service aimed at children. Hugh founded the company in 2017, and after a couple years of deliberately glacial growth, the business exploded during the pandemic, growing some 4,000 percent and attracting students in more than 100 countries. Hugh talk about the genesis of LingoAce, why he kept his foot on the brake for so long, and how the company is dealing with its rapid global expansion.
