TAE Expands & Rebrands!

Dear TAE Reader,

The Asian Entrepreneur  has officially rebranded to ‘Empirics’ as we expand our content and platform’s scope.

We are excited to inform you that big developments are currently happening as we embark on our next journey of expansion for the new year of 2021.

Since the inception, our platform has been dedicated towards crowdsourcing and facilitating access to the collective knowledge of Asia. For the most part of the last 7 years, this has been solely focused on bringing practical wisdom and insights to you on business in Asia.

Yet we believe there is still so much more knowledge to gain from Asia in fields that extend beyond business.

The time has come to utilize our unique model of media crowdsourcing to develop greater and more comprehensive knowledge on Asia as a whole from every imaginable topic. We would like to invite you to be the next part of our journey. 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all the support you have shown and to reiterate that we will forever be dedicated to be the bastion of open-access knowledge on the region and a place for experiential insights. 

Sincerely,

The Asian Entrepreneur
