Proud moment

Persuading my family to relocate from the leafy suburbs of Surrey to South East Asia so that I could co-lead the launch of new business. Lots of risk, but also one of the most exciting and rewarding times in our lives.

If I could interview anyone

I would like to have interviewed Lee Kuan Yew, the former Prime Minister of Singapore. He implemented a vision that led to the transformation of Singapore from a small underdeveloped island, to a leading business hub and financial services centre.
