It’s all about precision for grand venture technology CEO Julian NG, whether it’s running a marathon, cooking a meal or using technology to improve the lives of others.

To Be More Precise
You grasp fairly quickly that Julian Ng is a man comprising multiple layers, and very precisely at that. One minute the CEO of Grand Venture Technology (GVT) is dazzling you with facts about a tool capable of drilling a hole through a strand of hair, the next he has you salivating over his “made from scratch” spaghetti bolognaise. “It’s all about the alcohol you put in,” he explains. “It doesn’t have to be expensive wine either, I just go by personal preference.”

And just as you’re getting your head around the business leader mastering a terrific spag bol, you discover he’s also run a marathon. Tossing in the fact as casually as the sauce on the spaghetti, he says he applies the same discipline in training for Singapore’s 2017 Standard Chartered race as he does to running his business. “When the going gets tough, pushing through is all in your mind and heart. It serves me well,” he reflects.

No matter the number of hidden talents he harbours, it’s obvious that central to Julian’s core is an acute engineering brain. Whether it’s delving into astonishing technology or the mechanics of a good meal, he’s meticulous in his thinking, always adopting a considered approach. It’s a standard, albeit natural, tactic he’s used to help him segue from working as a research specialist for Singapore’s Ministry of Defence into excelling in sales and executive management.
