Hello.
My name is Johny Tay and welcome to my simple space.
"Innovation" and "new ventures" sound scary, but they shouldn't be. As individuals, we innovate everyday without realizing it; so this should also be second nature for our organizations!
I dedicate my time to making these things attainable and understandable.
