Another special episode from the crew in This Week in Asia. Following the Neoteny Conference last week on 12-13 Dec in Singapore, we manage to catch Joi Ito (Founder of the Neoteny Labs, CEO of Creative Commons, Board member of Digital Garage) for a short conversation. We discussed with Joi on the origin, purpose and plan for Neoteny Labs in Singapore and around Southeast Asia, the lessons of agile development, pivoting and unstructured learning for start-ups, and his thoughts on the evolution of the web in the coming year. Joi also shared with us on what traits he look for in the entrepreneurs when reviewing a potential company for investment and mentoring.
