EP 211 - Souliyo Vongdala - co-Founder and CEO of LOCA - Why Not Laos?

The Asia Tech Podcast was excited to do have a conversation with a co-Founder of a business in Laos.  Souliyo Vongdala, the co-Founder and CEO of LOCA, was just that person...and we would love to have more Founders from Laos as well.  LOCA is the only "Licensed" Laos-Based Ride-Hailing Service Application in Laos. Some of the topics that Souliyo discussed: Moving to the United States when he was 18 years old Creating the Lao keyboard for the iPhone and getting inundated with eMail Fibbing to his mother about going back to work in Laos Founding Laos' first ride-hailing business even though people said they did not want it The impact of COVID Figuring out the right marketing model Building an entire ecosystem around LOCA's driver partners and their families Other titles we considered for this episode: People Like to Think We Are Killing the Taxis How Can I Make My Decision Right? It Takes Time, Like a Mother Tongue Sustainable Means Sustainable Income I Registered Myself, and I Drive This episode was produced by Isabelle Goh.
