EY Entrepreneur Of The Year – Advanced Manufacturing
Julian Ng is a visionary on a mission to build Grand Venture Technology (GVT) into a global name in precision engineering and advanced manufacturing. Living by the philosophy that “the entrepreneurship journey is more meaningful when the travel companions are good”, Julian believes that an understanding family, capable and loyal employees, and appreciative customers form the bedrock of a successful business. He thus describes his role at GVT as being on a journey of relationship building, mentorship and personal growth.
Julian’s entrepreneurial spirit is demonstrated by his ability to drive exponential revenue growth and penetrate new customer sectors. Starting his career as a top sales engineer with Norelco Centreline, he subsequently moved on to co-found two companies and nurtured them into compelling investment targets. The first company, Achieve Manufacturing Solutions, has since evolved into Frencken Group; and the second, GVT, was recently recognized as one of Forbes Asia’s 200 Best Under A Billion.
