""I really went deep on what motivates me to build Airwallex. I was three and a half years into the business. The business was growing 100 times in 2018. And I only just sort of tasted what it [was like] to be an entrepreneur. And that's what I'd been dreaming about.""
""The vision was still there, unfinished: to build the financial infrastructure that lets any business operate anywhere in the world as if it were a local company.""
""Airwallex now claims more than $1.3 billion in annualized revenue and is growing at 85% year-over-year. It processes approaching $300 billion in annualized transaction volume.""
Jack Zhang, co-founder of Airwallex, faced a $1.2 billion acquisition offer from Stripe but ultimately decided to reject it. Motivated by his entrepreneurial dreams and the unfinished vision of Airwallex, he felt compelled to continue building the company. Despite initial doubts from co-founders, Zhang's decision proved wise as Airwallex has since achieved over $1.3 billion in annualized revenue and is growing at 85% year-over-year. The journey has been challenging, reflecting Zhang's deep conviction in his business strategy and vision.
