Join my discussion with Henry Soo, founder, and CEO of Settlely, an online resettlement concierge based in Vancouver. Settlely helps connect immigrant newcomers to life's essentials using an on demand concierge model and Henry, Settle’s founder and CEO, has a fascinating story.  His great grandfather moved to California during the gold rush, and after a few generations, Henry was born and raised in Vancouver, BC.  Henry started his career in tech back in the 90s, moved to China for 15 years to work on foreign investment, and since returning to Canada, is instrumental to the Vancouver startup scene and so much more.  So, here’s what we’re going to talk about:
