ABSTRACT

Kim Tan doesn't seek the spotlight. In fact, he prefers to stay out of it. But on a grey Friday morning in Surrey, just outside London, he appears on screen in a hoodie, ready to talk. It is 7:30 a.m., and the cofounder of the Transformational Business Network looks far from the typical image of a successful venture capitalist: casually dressed and with a calm, understated presence. Yet, as he begins to speak, it quickly becomes clear: for Kim Tan, business isn't just about profit. It's about changing the rules on who gets to thrive and what it takes to strengthen communities from the inside out.
