Inspired by his grandfather, who worked tirelessly to run an optical shop, SMU graduate Jonas Dion Chew chose the path of entrepreneurship. During the Covid-19 pandemic, while studying at SMU, he noticed the difficulties faced by local small businesses in harnessing technology. This motivated him to establish a digital marketing company in 2021 to help these companies to digitalise. This July, the newly minted graduate from SMU School of Economics shared that his company had achieved a six-figure revenue in the first year and doubled it in the second year. Jonas has also set a professional goal of selling the company before the age of 32, to pursue his interests in emerging fields, such as software and artificial intelligence.
