If you remember your early twenties you were probably still enjoying all night parties, wondering what to do with your life and how you could really change the world.
I know I was.
Today’s guest, Kelvin Chan, still in his twenties, found his answers through creating a world-wide organization with tens of thousands members while still in school. Now he’s creating two more, one to connect up regions around the world for business, and another to fill a critical gap in the development of therapeutic medical treatments.
Stay with us here on Leadership Point Radio to hear more on this fascinating journey.
