➡️ About The Guest

From humble beginnings in Yangzhou, China, as a farmer's son, to becoming the CEO of iGas USA, Ben Meng's journey epitomizes the classic rags-to-riches tale. The transition from earning $50 per month in China to establishing a foothold in the US began in 1996. Initial years saw him juggling myriad jobs until a landscaping business set the foundation for his financial upliftment. 

The transformative moment arrived with a near-death accident, pushing Meng to aim higher. Foregoing a prestigious Yale MBA, he ventured into the air-conditioning business. His relentless endeavor catapulted iGas to secure 25% of the US refrigerant market by 2020, standing second only to Honeywell, and marking Meng's ascent to a self-made billionaire.
