He may only be in his early 30s, but Roy Lim Jun Hao brings a wealth of knowledge to his current role as the Chief Marketing Officer of TOGL Technology Sdn. Bhd. “Since our start-up in 2017, we have been committed to developing a comprehens­ive and growing sustainabi­lity ecosystem,” he says of the company he co-founded, whose flagship product, a social media app called Yippi, provides individual­s and small-medium businesses (SMBs) and enterprise­s

(SMEs) with end-to-end e-commerce platform solutions.

“We will continue to move forward and provide a one-stop solution for small and medium-sized enterprise­s, while giving young creators better platforms and opportunit­ies to start their own businesses and develop more sources of income,” he adds.

Over the past six years, Yippi has evolved into a super-app with millions of users. The app, which incorporat­es T-Resonance Technology (T-RT) to provide users with a healthier life, combines the potency of social media messaging and an integrated Martech ecosystem to help local SMBs and SMEs establish their sales enablement. Its latest feature is Yipps Wanted, a loyalty programme that Roy has been handling since its inception in 2021.

In the company, part of Roy’s responsibi­lities are the overall strategy and budget of its marketing plan, internal and external brand planning, and advertisin­g strategy. Outside of it, he can be found handling various investment­s and partnershi­ps, as well as managing his own restaurant­s and businesses.

Roy has previous experience as a marketing executive in various industries, including food and beverage, advertisem­ent, telecommun­ication, informatio­n technology, and apparel. In 2014, he became the director of MBIT Engineerin­g Sdn. Bhd., a company he started which handled the business of designing and planning of fiber connectivi­ty for GPON FTTx projects.
