2. From 30 to 6,000: The UiPath Operator’s Playbook

October 14, 2025

UiPath’s rise from startup to global powerhouse is one of tech’s most dramatic growth stories. Malina Platon, who helped build UIPath’s go-to-market engine in its early days, shares what hypergrowth gets right—and wrong. We explore AI as enabler, channel-first strategies, hiring mistakes that stall momentum, and why she chose to build her next chapter in Singapore—where Southeast Asia’s founders are shaping a more sustainable playbook for scale.


Unfair Advantage explores how the people building, funding, and transforming Southeast Asia’s next wave of enterprise technology create—and sustain—their edge. Each episode brings clarity to what drives growth across the region’s fast-evolving innovation economy.


Hosted by Murli Ravi, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Tin Men Capital, a Singapore-based VC firm focused on Series A B2B tech startups across Southeast Asia.
