Spotlight on Alumni Entrepreneurs |
benjamin twoon (bbm, 2013) |
An outstanding individual with a good mind, a great communicator, and extremely generous, Benjamin Twoon can be successful anywhere. But he knew what he wanted and took the road less travelled. He became an entrepreneur. Benjamin, together with his good friend Jeff Tung (featured in the August issue of SMU CIRCLE), donated S$1 million in 2015 to establish a new entrepreneurship fund at SMU to nurture aspiring entrepreneurs. We catch up with Benjamin as he shares his experiences from his entrepreneurial journey. |
