Show Notes

Parents in Tech is my journey to learn about parenting, entrepreneurship and technology. Each and every one of you is welcome. This is how we can rethink work and parenting.

My name is Qin En, your host. I am a venture capitalist who was previously a founder, consultant and venture builder. Why should it be different back home? When did we start making decisions between “work” vs “life”? Who said that having kids sets you back?

We believe being a parent shapes you to be a better entrepreneur, investor and technology professional (a better person really!). But it is hard. And it is not easy to talk about.

At Parents in Tech, we say it is time.

It is time to talk about the realities of parenting while building a career (or company) in tech. It is time to set aside traditional gender roles, hustling as a way of life and overwork.

It is time to do it both. Well.

Introducing Parents in Tech - a space to ask questions and share stories about parenting, entrepreneurship and technology.
