Keo Sar is one of 6 children in his family. At a young age, his father who was the breadwinner got injured at work which resulted in him going on disability. To bridge the gap between disability cheques, he, his older brother, and their father would wake up early to dig in people's trash bins for cans before school started. Back then, recycling and garbage weren't separated! Kids at school called Keo, "the Cambodian Can Collector."
In this episode, Keo shares his remarkable journey from being born in a Thai refugee camp to growing up in San Diego, California to now living in Belgrade, Serbia. A move to Valencia, Spain is currently in the works.
Keo is a Khmer-American entrepreneur, advisor, speaker, and angel investor with over 10 years of experience scaling US-based startups (two unicorns, one acquisition) in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Today he is COO and Partner at Matter Product Studio, a US-based firm focused on AI-driven digital transformation that collaborates with mid-market and enterprise clients to enhance their technology capabilities.
Keo has a deep belief that talent is equally distributed but access and opportunities are not. This drives his passion to be involved in emerging markets, supporting underserved and underrepresented founders, providing mentorship in accelerators and incubators globally in the Western Balkans, MENA, and most recently in Cambodia.
