HENRY FOO

CO-FOUNDER OF ETHLAS

Henry leads engineering and game development at Ethlas. The avid gamer developed and launched the Ethlas metaverse single-handedly within two months. A believer of the zero to one ethos, espoused by Peter Thiel, the co-founder of PayPal, Henry started building tech products from the age of 17. He has been ideating and prototyping minimum viable products, as he derives a sense of fulfilment when users like what he created.

While in his second year in university, he launched a dating app, UniChat, for university students, which eventually chalked up more than 10,000 users across Southeast Asia. He hopes to empower and inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs. The University of Malaya graduate in Electrical and Electronics Engineering had worked in Grab and Micron Technology, whilst also launching four startups of his own.
