See Wai Hun, an inspiring, innovative and visionary entrepreneur who co-founded JurisTech during the 1997 Asian financial crisis, recently graced the prestigious EY Entrepreneurial Winning Women™ Asia-Pacific conference which took place from 22-24 July. This year, Malaysia had the privilege and the honour to host the event bringing together selected women entrepreneurs from the Asia-Pacific region to share their experiences.
