This is an Interview with Min Chen, CEO and founder of REDOXIGEN, a technology consultancy firm based in Panama. The interview explains their journey, who they are and their inspired vision of the future. Min also talks about their revolutionary new game, Interfase, which will be released very soon in conjunction with the Seedstars Regional Championships next week.

How would you define REDOXIGEN and where did the idea come from?

I have been an entrepreneur for over 10 years now working in my firm as an innovation and technology consultant for large companies and government institutions. After helping companies from difference sizes and challenges, I have seen patterns that led me to think that tech start-ups can also be created with an engineering approach. If we think of every start-up as a product of the same product line, then each of the components used in each start-up can be reused. Hence we can have a portfolio of solutions and we can create synergy between them.

If there is one thing you need to do this week, it is to order a salad from The Travelling Green’s (you can get it delivered to your door as well!).

How would you define The Travelling Greens and where did the idea come from?

The idea came many years ago when I could not find a good salad here, this became a reoccurring thought over many years. I have known for a while that with my passion and experience for cooking, that this is what I want to do. Also my friends kept encouraging me to open something after tasting my salads and middle eastern dishes. Finally, this year I had the time that I could create the company. The Travelling Greens is basically, rich, fresh and gourmet salads which take inspiration from ingredients and flavours from my mother’s amazing cooking and things that I have experienced throughout my live.

Whilst working with other companies I had the opportunity to learn about process improvements like, 6 sigma and Lean where you make small changes and get better results. This is what I love, how technology can help people, making our lives easier and helping companies grow. Colppy offers an online accounting software for small businesses.
