Over the years Malaysia has invested millions into promoting tech startup, in an attempt to replicate Silicon Valley in the West. This documentary looks at a 10year journey of e-Sentral, an e-book tech company that began as a startup, and its journey going through the different phases of growth. The film interviews startup industry players in Malaysia; leaders, executives, and entrepreneurs sharing their perspectives and experiences on how it actually is, and not as how it has been typically portrayed to be. A must watch if you like the tech space as the film portrays a genuine feel for perseverance and grit.
