Episode 2 – How I Opened 3 Shops in Moscow (And What It Taught Me)

In this episode of The Anton Ko Show, I take you back to 2010, when I launched my first business straight out of university—with no job experience, just curiosity and courage. From discovering the magic of Murano glass in Venice to opening three retail shops in Moscow within a year, I share the highs, the challenges, and one powerful lesson that shaped my entrepreneurial mindset. Whether you're starting something new or facing tough choices, this story is for you.
