Our Company and The People |
|
Our company, Addest Technovation, is a technology start-up funded by several individual technopreneurs and entrepreneurs. One major investor is Mr. Kai-Wa Ng, a co-founder of Creative Technology, which is a global leader in PC entertainment products including soundcards and has sold more than 100 millions units of it to date. The other major investor is Mr. Boh-Lim Yap, a very established lawyer who oversees the company’s various legal issues. The company begins its operations in early 2000, and in a short span of two years, 120 schools in Singapore (about 70% of the schools in Singapore), 50 schools in Australia, and another 50 schools in other countries have purchased the AddestationTM. A great majority of the people in the management team were colleagues when they were with their former employer, the Nanyang Technological University of Singapore. It is the cohesiveness among these people that brings the Addestation business to the present stage from scratch.
