Stanley combines his adept business acumen with his practical and effable demeanour. But don’t take the friendliness for easy-going- ness. He inspires his team to an standard of excellence and pushes himself harder. He is one of the few successful entrepreneurs of my batch that has gone the distance and shown greater promise over time.

Stanley is a great friend, mentor and entrepreneur, and his ability to execute is second to none. He is passionate about what he does and hustles hard that has allowed him to capitalize on plenty of opportunities. I believe Stanley's impact on society is just beginning - he takes time off his busy schedule and invests it in developing and mentoring others by openly sharing about his experience and perspective so that others can learn from him.
