EP4-5 | Taiwan is Brewing a Different Kind of Coffee

In this episode, we sit down with Jenny Hsu, a former Web3 operator who went from managing P&Ls, restructuring teams, and scaling startups to spending nearly three years working on farms, coral reefs, and regenerative agriculture.

That unexpected journey eventually brought her back to entrepreneurship — this time through coffee.

Jenny is now building ventures around regenerative agriculture and coffee, including Omawild, which she describes as “a nature fund disguised as coffee.”

We talk about why she walked away from tech, what she discovered in Indonesia, why coffee became the vehicle for her bigger mission, and whether regenerative agriculture can actually scale without losing what makes it regenerative.

In this episode, you'll learn:
