Past Experiences
- Describe your past experience (entrepreneurship, or works in start ups etc)... I have previously worked in a local start-up, Rockstar by Soon Lee. It is an independent multi-label store based in Singapore. Although I was not involved in management work, I observed how the start-up was ran. To date, it still fascinates me how the 2 founders managed to come together, form an interesting idea and made it a success with their wfforts.
