Cold Tea Collective’s fall 2019 editorial theme is business and entrepreneurship. The Entrepreneur Series features stories from business founders in various industries across our editorial and podcast content, as well as a live event in our hometown, Vancouver, Canada.
Throughout this theme, we’ll learn about how these founders saw a problem that needed to be solved, how they did it, and what their learnings were along the way. We also share about how their Asian heritage and identity shaped the way they approach business. We hope our Collective is inspired by their stories.
