Self Introduction!!!

Hi all, I am Huang Renzhi, a fresh graduate from the School of Computing (SoC), National University of Singapore. I would like to thank the school for the opportunity to blog in the school’s domain as a guest blogger for this week (starting 12th Jan 2009).

My Interest for Business, Entrepreneurship & Technology!!!
Since I was a young boy, I have always aspired to be an entrepreneur! I started selling everything from cool erasers to the wildly popular collectors cards, making profits and then re-invest all that I have earned into the “business”. I can say that during that time, I did not know any business nor marketing concepts like Porter’s Five Forces, SWOT (Strength Weakness Opportunities Threats) analysis. It was only when I got older that I had more exposure to these concepts that made my passion for business stronger. My interest in technology blossomed with my family’s first 486 computer. Initially, it was just the games. Then, I begin to learnt more about hardware and software (especially programming) which explains why I ended up in the School of Computing.

In conclusion, I grew up becoming a reasonably technology savvy business / entrepreneur wannabe. Trying to start something that ultimately can change the world for the better! Well, at least I try to! =)
