Looking forward to the future of business



 

Mad Unicorn trailer


"What does it take to turn a dream into a billion-dollar reality? Get a peek at the exhilarating ride with the main trailer for Mad Unicorn, a captivating series inspired by the true story of Thailand’s first unicorn startup. Directed by the award-winning Nottapon Boonprakob (Come and See), the series promises a blend of high-stakes business drama and personal transformation.

The trailer introduces viewers to Santi, a driven young entrepreneur who transitions from a life in the mountains to the high-pressure world of express delivery. As he navigates betrayal and fierce competition, themes of ambition, resilience, and redemption emerge, painting a vivid picture of his quest to make his business succeed in Thailand.

In Mad Unicorn, Ice-Natara Nopparatayapon (One for the Road, Delete) stars as Santi, the ambitious protagonist who dreams of lifting his family out of poverty. Armed with fluent Mandarin taught by his mother, Santi spots an opportunity in the express delivery industry and launches “Thunder Express.” When a ruthless tycoon, Kanin, portrayed by legendary actor and musician Ek-Thaneth Warakulnukroh (The Sea is Watching), betrays him, Santi teams up with a sharp-witted financier, Xiaoyu (Janeyeh Jiranorraphat), and an antisocial coding prodigy, Ruijie (Dr. Palang Rocksilp).

Mad Unicorn weaves a narrative rich in cultural authenticity and innovation. Set against the backdrop of Bangkok’s dynamic business landscape, the series takes viewers on a wild ride through the world of express delivery services.

Join Santi on his relentless pursuit for his dreams in Mad Unicorn, debuting on May 29, only on Netflix."

Is Apple buying Netflix? Are you investing in Netflix to speculate?

Ateneo Professor on Entrepreneurship

One way of opportunity seeking, if you are an equity player is to target companies ripe for take over.

As there is an increase frenzy in take over, prices go up sometimes by a factor of two, and profits are made.  However, there is a downside. It could be an outright ruse or play to put the stock into play.  The ruse may be true or false.

If however, the suitor company changes its mind, then you the investor is left holding the proverbial empty bag.

Always target the companies that you think will make it, with or without the prospect of takeover.
