About Shirley

I am an impact‑driven university technology transfer professional with experience in business development and operations in an allergy immunotherapy startup. I have a strong track record in identifying and nurturing high‑potential startups. With a PhD in Biological Sciences and multi‑disciplinary qualifications in leadership, business, economics, clinical trials, digital marketing, and analytics, I bring broad strategic expertise. A Commonwealth and Nanyang Scholar, Distinguished Toastmaster, and certified patent valuation analyst, I serve as a national IP expert, mentor, and startup judge. I support startups with IP strategy, patent valuation, tax planning, and corporate structuring, including setting up subsidiaries and branches.
