On 10 Nov 2022, SEG alumnus Loh June Yong won the Young Supply Chain Professional of the Year Award.

Loh June Yong is a serial entrepreneur and was the Chief Executive Officer of CombineSell founded in November 2017, a Singapore data analytics-driven multichannel e-commerce technology company. As one of the fastest growing enterprise software players disrupting the digital market, the company was then acquired in 2019 by one of the fastest growing e-commerce enablers – Shopmatic Holdings Pte Ltd – joining forces to serve over a million of users in the Southeast Asia region. 

June Yong then started VE Capital Asia Group – a management consulting and deep technology solutions and services holding group in the year 2020 – to provide complete, reliable, scalable and world-class level enterprise solutions under one roof, serving both SMEs and MNCs. Under the board management’s stewardship, the group went on to acquire six companies in six months during 2021, each specialising in different technological niche areas, such as Management Consulting, Software Development, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning Solutions, Robotic Automation, Cyber Security, as well as Corporate Adult Training. The group now owns more than 10 subsidiaries with presence in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Taiwan. 

June Yong is also very actively involved in helping to develop the start-up ecosystem in Singapore. He joined Republic Polytechnic’s Business Incubation Centre as a business mentor to guide and inspire young start-up founders. Additionally, he has set up an “EnteRPrise Growth Fund” and pledged S$2m together with Sheldon Global Pte Ltd to support not only Republic Polytechnic but also other Singapore start-ups.
