Fuse CEO Alan Chang: The Revolut Playbook of Speed & Ownership, Why Founders Aren’t Ambitious Enough

Alan Chang, Harry Stebbings, Nik

Alan, founder of the energy firm Fuse, advocates for an extreme "Never Settle" culture that rejects work-life balance and relies on a three-tier employee classification to drive rapid scaling toward a $300 billion valuation. Operating with a revenue trajectory that has grown from £2 million to over $200 million annually, the company pursues simultaneous product diversification and aggressive hiring of high-performing engineers while eschewing formal performance improvement plans. By prioritizing immediate exit for underperformers and tying compensation strictly to outcome grades, the organization aims to eliminate energy constraints through capital efficiency and deregulation, positioning itself to outpace traditional utility models.
