I bet you can’t even guess how many “entrepreneurs” are out there right now.
I’m sure you’ve seen countless annoying, scammy, and make-you-want-to-skip ads all over social media on how to become an entrepreneur and make bank.
Luckily for most of us, are astute enough to think twice before buying into their one-time offer for an online course.
The Singapore government has been encouraging businesses in Singapore to transform by adopting technology in all aspects of running the business, including the Human Resources (HR) function.
New-age HR Technology (HRTech) solutions can minimize many time-consuming transactional HR tasks and free-up bandwidth for HR professionals to do more strategic work.

You probably already know that the most valuable asset to any business is its people.
Without the innovative minds and hard-working teams, a business is nothing at all.
That’s why it’s so important to invest in the people in your business just as much as you do any other aspect, like marketing or research and development.
E-commerce is on the rise in Asia and elsewhere in the world, with significant profits available for those that get it right.
