About

Background

Timothy Foo

Singapore, 2026

I'm a product leader with ~9.5 years building from zero — both as a founder and inside platforms at scale. At Daraz/Alibaba I built new monetisation businesses inside a 40M-MAU marketplace. At Liminal I'm now applying the same validation, pivot, and kill discipline to AI-native ventures partnered with repeat unicorn founders.

I co-founded an education startup in 2016 (still operating 10 years on) and trained as an accountant before that. My product career has run through founder, consulting, and platform stints — that mix shows up in how I work: commercial instinct, hands-on prototyping, and bias toward shipping cleanly.
