KU GEOK BOON
CEO, SG ENABLE
Her mission: To impact individuals with disabilities
Prior to assuming the role of founding CEO at SG Enable in 2013, Ku Geok Boon spent nearly two decades working in the education sector.
Her belief in maximising the potential of every individual has been a driving force throughout her career. At SG Enable, she spearheads initiatives aimed at fostering inclusion and dismantling barriers for individuals with disabilities in Singapore. Her efforts encompass diverse areas such as inclusive employment, technology adoption, and community integration.
Notably, she played a pivotal role in the establishment of the Enabling Village in 2015, Singapore’s first inclusive community space that is also home to the country’s inaugural inclusive gym, the first inclusive preschool, and the first outreach clinic tailored for persons with disabilities.
Given your background in education, what motivated you to transition into the disability sector and take on a leadership role at SG Enable?
