Bio
Tony Yeoh (杨忠林）
I had the fortune of working with Nilhan when I joined MVP. During that time, Nilhan had proven himself as a capable team lead, assisting to smoothen the working process between myself and the Sri Lanka based team. Nilhan was also hardworking, responsible and smart. Despite the timezone difference, Nilhan was able to complete the assigned work tasks quickly and with great quality. He is comfortable working across different cultures too, as seen by his proactive efforts to build up relationships across ASEAN and India - leading to increase dealflows for the Fund. Nilhan’s analytical skills also shone, especially when dealing with fintech startups, given his strong background in the financial world. He was also quick to pick up on other skills, such as analysing legal documents, negotiating directly with lawyers, analysing startups from a wide range of industries and trying his hand at crafting marketing-related materials for the Fund. Nilhan is indeed a 10/10 employee and I would highly recommend him to other firms. Keep up the good work Nilhan!
