When Is It A Good Time To Be An Entrepreneur

In this ‪@STORMMagazine‬ video, panellists involved in the WED WEB CHAT - Entrepreneurs Without Borders talk about how they became entrepreneurs.
Alan Cheung is a relatively late starter, having spent time in the corporate world before switching to his own business. He reckons the experience and wisdom picked up in the corporate world have served him well.

For Joshua Chin, it was a case of trial and error before he hit upon something he loved and a way of working things out to his advantage. Building his e-commerce marketing site involved sourcing talent globally and utilising his skill sets, knowhow and not being thwarted by the lack of funding and resources. The digital native took advantage of KZbin and Google to navigate his way.
Ray Ang was born into the family’s successful melamine manufacturing business and was tasked with its continued growth and expansion. His philosophy in starting a business is based on need rather than want.
While the melamine business has expanded to 44 countries, his newer venture - Sweetest Moments, a gifting business - has filled a need quite effectively.
