A lot can change in a decade. Joel Neoh, for instance, went from business graduate to highly-successful entrepreneur in the span of ten years. From Youth Asia to Groupon, and from KFit to Fave, Joel Neoh continues to innovate the way he does business by never settling into a mode of complacency. On this episode of ‘The One-ders’, we speak to Joel about the stigma associated with youth in entrepreneurship, how he decides when to take leaps of faith, as well his lifestyle that has kept him grounded despite the success.
