• – • Centre 42
About the speaker
Amanda is the Chief Marketing and Buying Officer of Naiise; an online design retailer based in Singapore, trying to make design accessible to everyone. Amanda hails from a banking background but left after 3 years to explore more fulfilling options. In December 2013, she joined Naiise, after spending a year as Marketing Director for ZALORA. She hopes to leverage her experience to build more brand awareness for Naiise globally, its strategic partners and the brands and designers that inspire her daily. Amanda is also married to Dennis.
Dennis is the Founder of Naiise; an online design retailer based in Singapore, trying to make design accessible to everyone. If he weren’t an entrepreneur, he’d been a hippie. But Dennis ended up founding several businesses, including a creative agency, which shaped his love for design. In January 2013, he established Naiise and ran it by himself for 10 months. Dennis is a dreamer and hopes to build Naiise into a global design retailer, while nurturing a design-centric culture in Singapore.
