Hawks Chan, CEO of Lightspeed Investing, to explore his unconventional journey from aspiring surgeon to entrepreneur. Philip shares how discontent pushed him to break from tradition, the challenges of scaling beyond solopreneurship, and why mentorship and networking became his greatest assets. He also reveals the leadership principles that helped him form powerful partnerships, manage billions in assets, and stay ahead in a rapidly changing business landscape.

About the Author

I believe you can achieve anything you truly want to achieve. “It might sound trite, but time and time again, I’ve seen it happen with my clients. They overcome the fear of exposing themselves to the possibility of failure to creating profitable exciting businesses. My clients do great work, and sometimes it only takes someone else believing in them to give them the confidence to step out and take the chance.”
