How have you benefitted from BBX?
My business gets the opportunity to reach out to new customer profiles. For example, I have participated in events like a bazaar held by the Automobile Association of Singapore – where I was able to reach a different and new demographic of customers and connect with other business owners from the BBX network.
How do you think platforms like BBX help address the challenges faced by MSMEs?
Every business owner is unique – they have their own story and perspectives. Platforms like BBX can provide a space for them to share their knowledge and expertise, learn from and uplift one another. The world changes so quickly nowadays and everyone can be struggling in one way or another, so supportive communities can make a big difference.
