“We offer them solutions that are effective, easy to use and more importantly, can help them make sense of their data,” Teh shares. This ease-of-use is not something that came easy. Teh spent the early days of Fusionex understanding client needs and what they were willing to pay for, and then building the foundation for the technology platform with his team. He recalls working 19-hour days in those first six months since Fusionex’s incorporation, writing codes and endless meetings with potential clients, trying to gauge the pulse of what clients wanted.

Ivan formed his core team six months into the founding of Fusionex. This team comprised senior executives from established technology and consulting companies, the majority of whom are still with Fusionex today.

“The Fusionex culture is a culture of Innovation. We listen and implement based on feedback from staff thus empowering them with a sense of belonging and purpose. This in turn encourages staff to churn out innovative ideas that will benefit both the team and the company as a whole,” beams Teh, when asked about the working life in Fusionex. “An interesting example would be the establishment of our new Malaysian headquarters. The office was “built by the people, for the people”. The innovation lies in the fact that the entire design and concept was produced internally by the Fusionex team members and all features in the office are there based on suggestions, requests, comments and feedback by the Fusionex staff.”
