Episode Description
What happens when a hedge fund investor with zero industry experience and no outside investors decides to buy a 26-year-old business? She makes it work.
Hao Nguyen walked away from a prestigious finance career — McKinsey consultant, hedge fund investor, Wharton graduate — to acquire Winborne, a niche waterproofing company in Singapore 🇸🇬. With 2 kids at home, no local network and no industry knowledge, she still pulled the trigger. And it paid off.
In this episode of the Institute for Greatness Podcast, Anthony Tse sits down with Hao to unpack every step of her journey — from spotting the right business to closing the deal, managing a blue collar team and using AI to scale a traditional SME.
