Today on the show we have Dr. Vireak Khloth Chea, who is the co-founder & CEO of PillTech, a certified pharmacist from California receiving his Doctor of Pharmacy from Pacific University Oregon School of Pharmacy. Pilltech is a digital marketplace connecting pharmaceutical suppliers to pharmacy owners in Cambodia. Pilltech is improving Cambodia's pharmaceutical distribution networks by creating a platform to help improve medication safety, reduce counterfeit drugs available in the market and grow efficiency in supply chain management.
What we dive into:
- Why pharmacy distribution needs a radical rethink in Cambodia; creating a model that reduces time spent on procurement from days to hours
- What is has been like raising a $300k funding rounding during COVID; methods for approaching this for local and regional investors
- 'Don't try to compete against other people, try to compete against yourself'; drown out the competitive noise and focus on taking small steps, day in, day out to improve your business and realise your vision
