Be bold in pursuing your passion
Simpliflying CEO Shashank Nigam says risk is only dangerous when you do not know what you are doing.
ARMED with just seven employees, Shashank Nigam commands one of the largest airline branding consultancy firms in the world: Simpliflying.
Today, Simpliflying works with over 75 brands around the world, making it one of the most successful aviation branding consultancy firms globally. Their clients include Singapore Airlines, Turkish Airlines, Latam Airlines, Emirates, Airbus, Boeing and Bombardier.
But Mr Nigam's success did not come easy. Indeed, he was by all accounts a typical Singaporean graduate ready to join the workforce as a white-collar worker, graduating from the Singapore Management University in 2007. He got himself a secure job in the technology start-up Endeca, in Boston.
