He is the co-founder of price comparison site Zoomit.com, which was later merged with Kelkoo.com and sold to Yahoo in 2004 in one of Europe's largest internet transactions. And none of this would have been possible if someone hadn't believed in him, his ideas and his company Zoomit, at a very early stage. He has since paid it forward, having invested in over 25 startups since he became an angel investor in Singapore in 2004 as part of his family investment company Tigris Capital. Indeed, this is the same name behind numerous Singapore success stories including PropertyGuru, Anacle Systems, Tickled Media, ReferralCandy and Nugit. In 2010, Tigris Capital was awarded "Best Performing VC / PE backed company" by the Singapore Venture Capital Association for its successful investment in PropertyGuru.com, Southeast Asia's leading property listing site.
