Hi! I’m Alan, and I majored in Finance at Xiamen University in Malaysia. As a Research Assistant on our team, I focus on collecting and analyzing data on startup ecosystems in Central Asia.

Working with data has always been a passion of mine, and I find satisfaction in organizing complex information into comprehensive datasets. I have the pleasure of working closely with Dr. Reidhead, whose expertise and guidance have been crucial to improving my skills. Additionally, collaborating with Jacob has been a fantastic experience, and I’ve learned so much from him along the way.

I’m thrilled to be part of this project, which not only aligns with my professional interests but also offers me the opportunity to deepen my understanding of the dynamic startup ecosystems .
