About the Programme:

He’s the Founder and CEO of PatSnap, one of the world’s leading connected innovation intelligence B2B software solutions. Join Jeffrey Tiong, regarded as an outstanding “technopreneur” and innovator, as he shares how the industry has shaped him into the person he is today.

About the Speaker

With a passion for R&D and a desire to enable companies to innovate smarter and faster, Jeffrey has spent the last 14 years scaling PatSnap from a small start-up to a global organisation serving over 8000 customers in more than 50 countries world-wide.

The inspiration for PatSnap was sparked during Jeffrey’s university internship, where he worked for a medical device start-up in the United States. Tasked with conducting patent research on the company’s product, he witnessed first-hand how data-driven IP strategy and research can help create innovative products that impact lives. He started PatSnap with a simple vision: to democratise patent data to enable better and more efficient research that fuels innovation. Since its inception, PatSnap has supported many companies to innovate faster than their competitors, protect and advance their IP positions, increase R&D efficiency, and anticipate opportunities across different industries.

Jeffrey was awarded the SCS IT Leaders Award in 2019, EY Entrepreneur Of The Year Award (Singapore) in 2018 and was featured on the Peak Power List in 2017. Jeffrey currently resides in Singapore and spends most of his time traveling between Shanghai, London and Toronto.
