Providing Value First, Enjoying the Process.
Hello, I am Ian Goh
Driving growth from 0 to 1 and beyond. We build and scale high-growth tech platforms that connect communities.
As a strategic leader at Bigo Live, my focus is on spearheading our growth initiatives across the Middle East. We work to scale operations, align stakeholders, and solidify Bigo Live as the region’s go-to platform for meaningful connection.
I’ve always had a passion for starting things, building businesses, on building from the ground up and achieving hyper-growth in new markets:
► Co-founded and led Tiki as CEO, launching the short-video platform and scaling it to 100M+ users, 32M MAU, and ~70% D1 retention in South Asia & the Middle East.
► OYOpreneur at heart: Launched and scaled OYO’s Malaysian business, leading growth marketing and partnerships to drive both demand and supply-side expansion into Southeast Asia.
► Expanded oBike’s global dock-less bicycle sharing model into 10 countries across the Asia-Pacific region, deploying 500,000 bicycles.
My journey from Kota Kinabalu, Borneo, to building platforms worldwide has given me a multicultural perspective. I currently split my time between the Middle East and Singapore to drive our initiatives on the ground. It’s a mindset shaped by lifelong curiosity: exploring new cultures, understanding what engages a community, and applying strategy on the tennis or pickleball court.
Open to connecting with founders, investors, and leaders focused on the creator economy, social platforms, and market expansion in the SEA & MENA region.
