He then won the prestigious Global Young Awards for Asia 2021 beating other nominations from Asia partners.
IZZAH
After graduating, Izzah (25) struggled to find work. Because of the pandemic, very few companies in Malaysia were recruiting. After taking part in the TEAM programme, Izzah decided to take the plunge and set up her own business instead.
She now runs a successful coffee kiosk, Kopi K, in her hometown. One of the key business skills that Izzah learned was how to set and achieve goals. When she first
launched Kopi K, Izzah was only able to offer a drive-by collection service from her home. As she sought to build her business, Izzah’s short-term goal was to move to a physical stall within three months. She now has a roadside kiosk serving takeaway coffees, and also offers catering for private events.
