The husband-and-wife team will recall why they set up KORIO – tapping on their unique strengths - and how they managed to survive the COVID crisis, before shutting down temporarily in 2023. They’ll then recall how they engineered a triumphant comeback in partnership with Zouk Group. They’ll also discuss their gameplan to thrive in the current F&B scene rocked by a string of high-profile closures, and a tough economic environment.
