Bio
Dr. Roslina Chai • 蔡姗珊 •
Rajat's commitment to explore all angles and never take "no" at face value, was an invaluable mindset in our partnership to expand into the Indian market. Not only did Rajat's grit, perseverance and agility paved the way for strategic conversations, his genuine care of others makes Rajat one of the most delightful business partners one can to work with. Not once did the relationship feel transactional, as Rajat took full ownership of the business and conveyed the confidence that he cares as much about the business as we do. It has been a true honour to work with Rajat, and it is an experience I would not hesitate to repeat.

Rajat has been a great person to work with. A patient listener and open to suggestions. I could reach out to him very easily for advice on any project. He gave me the freedom to work independently and intervened only when I required. I used to get inspired by his reading skills. All the very best Rajat!!!
