Manage episode 441471373 series 2464403
The boom of home computers and electronics in the 1970s and 1980s was as much a success of entrepreneurial endeavor and technological innovation, as it was of the blossoming worldwide supply chain.
One of the company's that made it all possible was WONG's International and our guest today, Raymond Yap was their representative in the UK. He helped make sure that the BBC Micro got into UK schools and traveled the world securing suppliers for all manner of electronics.
How did that business work? Where did his career lead after this? Raymond tells us of an amazing journey that includes not only manufacturing, but web startups and environmental education.
