About The Author
WeiChang - Co-Founder
A seasoned entrepreneur despite his youth. Armed with the experience of tossing snowballs in Europe during his Polytechnic exchange programme at ESIEE (Paris), Lai founded his first company (PINKCUBE) at the turn of the millennium in his mind when he was in his late teens. However, he only formalized it 2 months after he was diagnosed with cancer in 2004. The illness was so serious then that no one even dared to ask for a prognosis. Knowing that he had nothing to lose, Lai tried and failed many times in his entrepreneurship endeavors during his chemotherapy and radiotherapy sessions. But he never gave up, and with the help of his partners during his NUS undergrad days, he founded the largest tuition agency in Singapore - ManyTutors.com. His interest for business does not stop here though, and Lai is currently managing numerous businesses including the Otaku House retail outlets and Internet projects to build the next Google.
