PERHAPS THE MOST precious and irreplaceable resource in life, is time – the relentless thief that slips through your hands like grains of sand, never to return again. The way we spend our time defines who we are, and well, if not now, when? The Robb Report Singapore Thought Leaders community is a testament to that audacity to seizing the day. Launched in 2019 with 27 founding members, it is a growing collection of industry captains, game-changers and creative minds from the world of luxury and beyond, shining light on an ever-changing world through storytelling and intimate conversations. This year’s edition, brought to you by Glenfiddich, represents individuals who have reimagined time for themselves, pushing the boundaries of their respective fields, from business and technology to art and culture. Read on to get acquainted with the personalities who made the cut.
Jaelle Ang CEO, The Great Room
Jaelle Ang took a substantial risk when she went into the business of co-working spaces, still a relatively new feature on the economic landscape. Today, The Great Room that Ang founded in 2016 offers some of the region’s handsomest work spaces, empowering companies and individuals to create value in the modern economy.
Why are you passionate about what you do? There is nothing else more fulfilling than seeing a space in your mind, and then gathering the resources and solving every problem that comes your way until it comes to fruition. I am passionate about making great design happen.
