About our guest Chui Chui Tan

Chui Chui Tan is a cross-cultural strategist, advisor and author of Research for Global Growth: Strategies and Guidance for Cross-Cultural Insights. For over two decades, she has helped companies like Spotify, Netflix, Fiverr and Bumble expand and thrive in more than 50 markets, not by simply translating content but by culturalising their product strategies, proposition and growth plans through deep cultural and market intelligence.

She works closely with product and UX teams to uncover the hidden cultural assumptions in design and decision-making, helping them build experiences that resonate globally and feel local everywhere.

Chui Chui also advises at board and C-suite level, guiding leadership teams through international growth, cross-market complexity and culturally-informed innovation so products and businesses don’t just scale, they land.
