How hard is it to start a business as a woman? From setting up a market stall, sourcing ingredients, building a brand, managing taxes and contracts, to handling the chaos of live events—every step is a challenge.
In our premiere episode of SV Night, we’re joined by two fearless young founders: Peggy Hsieh of OMG Entertainment and Vivian Ho from Taiwan’s iFoodmap. They’ll share their journey from zero to one—how they pushed through the lowest points, and what they learned along the way.
We’re also honored to welcome Dr. Chang Chiu, a highly respected attorney and legal voice in the Chinese-American community. She’ll break down how to avoid common legal pitfalls in your entrepreneurial journey, whether you're just starting out or already running your own brand.
The conversation will be moderated by Sophie Lin, IP attorney at ITRI (Taiwan’s Industrial Technology Research Institute), who will also share practical legal steps for building and protecting your brand.
Because entrepreneurship takes more than passion—it takes protection.
We’ll also dive into mental health, stress management, and how to build the support systems every founder needs.
✨ The session includes live Q&A and open-floor sharing — a space to ask, connect, and feel seen. Don’t cry alone on your startup journey — come laugh, learn, and grow with us at SV9.
