The Beginning It’s 2020, I’ve just turned 30, I’m a pilot and its the height of COVID - not a lot of flying jobs around. I decide I’m going to start a computer hardware company in Dubai. I’m not really sure what it does yet, and I figure I’ll just build and sell workstations for 3D rendering. I call it ‘RendeRex’. Ironically, for the next 4 years of the company’s life, I’ll never sell a single 3D rendering computer.
