Description
<p>Victor Koo built one of the largest video platforms in the world as co-founder and former CEO of Youku - often called the “YouTube and Netflix of China” - creating billions in value and reaching millions of people. But at the height of that success, something didn’t add up. In this episode of the Aconic Podcast, Victor shares his<strong> </strong>journey<strong> </strong>chasing achievement across tech, media, and finance… to realizing that all of it had become noise.</p>
<p>What happens when everything you’ve worked for no longer feels meaningful?</p>
<p>Victor opens up about the moment the external wins stopped answering the deeper questions—and how that led him inward, toward clarity, purpose, and a different kind of success. If you’ve ever felt stuck chasing more, this conversation will challenge how you think about wealth, ambition, and what actually matters.</p>
