What it takes to succeed as a solopreneur

    Published Sun, Apr 10, 2022 · 09:50 PM

    WHAT does Brenda, one of the top executive coaches in the world, have in common with Tai Ho, a veteran broadcaster and media consultant? What does Simone, human connection expert and bestselling author, have in common with Gabriel, who describes himself as a people musician and collaborative pianist? What does Adrian, a global HR Tech influencer, have in common with Irene, a home-based baker who creates the most luscious lava mooncakes?

    The thread that binds them all is that each of them is a solopreneur - a mashup of "solo" and "entrepreneur" - right here in Singapore. Oxford Languages defines a solopreneur as "a person who sets up and runs a business of their own".

    Regardless of age, education level, or domain expertise, a record number of professionals around the world are walking away from traditional employment arrangements to work independently. What started out as a mere trickle some years ago, is fast gaining momentum.
