Sharon Lim is the Chairwoman (and former CEO) of Browzwear, a global 3D fashion technology company with 180 employees spread across APAC, the US, Europe, and the Middle East. Under her leadership, Browzwear has generated tens of millions in revenue, driven by a unique focus on “pulse” metrics and a culture of rest. Sharon has also founded a venture-building arm—investing in ESG businesses and pioneering AI innovation through Fashion AI Hub. In our conversation, we discuss:

• How she pivoted from B2C to B2B (and from near-bankruptcy to sustainability)
• Why she champions “pulse” metrics over revenue (and what that actually looks like)
• The importance of rest in a venture-backed, fast-scaling environment
• How Sharon embraces failure as part of personal and business growth
• Her approach to building a strong leadership team and handing over the reins
• Lessons learned on enterprise sales, open ecosystems, and sustainable growth
• Much more!
