These are the ForbesUnder30 Asia media entrepreneurs and influencers keeping us connected during social distancing:
helping millions stay informed and entertained during the pandemic.
Kumu, which is operated by Kumumedia Technologies, holds particular appeal for its most important users: overseas Filipinos. While only 30% of Kumu users are Filipinos living and working abroad, they make up half of its revenue through the app’s use of virtual gifts, which are bought with real money to give to livestreamers as tips. Filipinos abroad, many made more homesick because of the pandemic, turned to the platform, says Dorado.
Dorado knows he needs to act fast to take advantage of the momentum."We have this one- to two-year window," he says. He points to reports that ByteDance, the Beijing-based owner of TikTok, is looking to raise about $2 billion in a fundraising round, while Kuaishou Technology, a Chinese short-video app operator, raised $5.4 billion from its IPO in Hong Kong in February.
