Hervé Ky is a second generation French Cambodian born and raised in a suburb of Paris, France. He is the Co-Founder of Keybento, a home exchange platform that caters to families, providing them with affordable family-friendly accommodations.
Hervé shares how his parents pushed him and his two sisters to excel in school, and how he had a difficult time getting a finance job in London, England because his English wasn’t strong enough. Today, he’s a polyglot communicating in French, Spanish, English, and Khmer.
We covered his transition from investment banking to founding a startup with his life partner, sharing his highs and lows of entrepreneurship. He also reflects on his inspirations and aspirations of his business. A great episode for those exploring entrepreneurship, particularly in technology.
