Ye and I worked together several years ago on business development in Singapore. The interest was about setting up an Acxiom APAC base for big-data analytics and product R&D. Ye facilitated a feasibility study over a few days for us to meet possible data clients, commercial partners, and research institutions. She helped scope out a possible project for the ASIA HQ in line with the data/marketing analytics industry strategy in Singapore, together with competitie analysis with other investment locations such as Hong Kong and Japan. I'm very impressed by her knowledge, experience, business network, and passion about the Singapore economic growth and market. Jie
