Monash Industry Talk: From Corporate to Entrepreneurship; Starting a Web Content Management Business

Written by KW Sunday, 16 October 2011 21:32

Our CEO, Mr Kelvin Lim was invited to share his working experience and entrepreneurship journey to the students of Monash University on 4th October 2011. This industry talk was aimed to provide insights of an actual working environment and prepared the students to face the world when they stepped out of their university. The lecturer of Monash was very keen to have our CEO share his experience transforming from a highly paid, 9 to 5 job in big corporations to an all-rounder entrepreneur today.

The students attended this talk were from a course called web content management which relates closely to Juzit's core business.

In the one-hour session, Mr Kelvin had shared his ups and downs, good and bad of his working life in the corporate world. One of the things he has always enjoyed when working with the big corporations is the luxury of travelling around. He had learned a lot from different cultures and people he met while travelling.

Next, he also shared the hardship and downside of transforming into working on his own. It was never easy and will never be easy. However, the good news is that when it is your own company, you get to strive for your dreams, learn beyond your job scope and expand your network. A word of wisdom from him was to be prepared thoroughly before walking into the entrepreneurship journey.
