Guest: Dr Mimi Aminah, Co-Founder and Chief Strategy & Financial Officer, Qwork
Having built a successful gig platform for e-commerce and retail, Qwork is now taking on a bigger challenge: solving the talent mismatch in Malaysia's heavy industries. They're launching the Qwork Manpower Hub (QMH), a new subsidiary focused on building a skilled local talent pipeline for "3D" jobs.
Co-founder and Chief Strategy & Financial Officer Dr. Mimi Aminah joins us to unpack this evolution. She discusses their "train and place" model for creating career progression, the strategic separation of their operations and tech businesses, and their plan to fund this new venture through equity crowdfunding.
