Canadian Jay started and built Blue interactive in Singapore in 1999 which he later sold to WPP in 2008.
We talk about the importance of drinking with other techdads, why he has a rap group on his payroll, why failing is a hallmark of an entrepreneur, and how he and his successful wife manage their relationship to care for their kids in Nairobi.
