Hello 👋
Now
1) Building Slothware Labs, starting with TickerTown — a communal investing game with real market data, play money, and leaderboards to help people practise systematic investing. You can read more here and here.
2) Helping AngelCentral review and curate startups. Occasionally angel investing too. Fun.
3) Doing what I call “coaching as comrades” through Intro.co/williswee. Sparks joy when I help founders get unstuck.
Then
I founded Tech in Asia (TIA) in 2010 (unofficially in 2009) with a mission to build and serve Asia's tech and startup community. It was one of the most meaningful and fulfilling things I've ever done.
I got to work with brilliant people and investors (East Ventures, Y Combinator, SoftBank, Eduardo Saverin, and more), travel across the world, and help shape the region's startup ecosystem. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of it.
In my job at TIA, I stayed closest to the product and business side of things, which I really enjoyed. I've always loved bridging the gap between beautiful, usable products and a viable business model.
After an incredible 16-year journey, I stepped down as CEO on 31 March 2026. It was a bittersweet moment. I'm immensely proud of what we've built and deeply grateful for our talented, dedicated team. I'm now taking time off to recharge with my family before embarking on my next adventure.
Before
Long before Tech in Asia, I taught math, sold vacuum cleaners door‑to‑door, and even traded grasshoppers for pocket money. In my early twenties, I launched an education center from scratch. Those early experiences taught me how to grow ideas from 0 to exit.
Life
When I'm not working, I love spending time with my family 👩🏻👧🏻👧🏻👧🏻, playing tennis 🎾, reading 🧠, daydreaming 💭, angel investing very selectively, and supporting startups that are making a positive impact on our environment 🟢.
Connect
I enjoy connecting with fellow founders and builders. Whether you're working through a product challenge or navigating the founder journey, I'm happy to help if I can. Find me on:
