Social development. All kinds of sustainable, value creating businesses.

Past Experiences
- Describe your past experience (entrepreneurship, or works in start ups etc)
I have yet to embark on a personal start up besides the one in the pipeline. My outlet for my entrepreneurship drive would be during my internship in Bosch and Siemens Home Appliances in their Asia Pacifc HQ in Singapore and Goodrich Global in Shanghai. Both MNCs have given me opportunities to embark on independent projects in bringing sustainable development and value added changes in the areas of e-commerce, key accounts management with multi-channel and pure online players retailers.
