Fabian Weiner
Managing Director

IN a world obsessed with all things digital – iPads, laptops, smartphones and the like – it’s no surprise that many people think the traditional board game is dead. But pay a visit to the Ninive Games store in Phra Khanong and you’ll find plenty of evidence to the contrary. 

Established in 2012 by German expat Fabian Weiner, Ninive Games imports a Thai version of the popular German board game ‘The Settlers of Catan,’ which it sells to retailers around the nation. The game is also available to buy (B1,750 in English; B1,600 in Thai), and play for free, at the Ninive Games store.

Linda O’Connor Jennings 
Managing Director

SOME entrepreneurs believe that passion is the most important ingredient in building a successful business. But there’s another, equally vital, element that goes into establishing a winning trade – a keen eye for inspiration.

American expat Linda O’Connor Jennings is certainly evidence of this. She first spotted the inspiration for her business around 30 years ago when travelling to the culturally-rich province of Chiang Rai. And, although it’s taken almost three decades to get her resulting business, called Carry On, off the ground, her eco-friendly and unique handbags have been definitely worth the wait.

Jay-R Crisologo
Founder

CALIFORNIAN expat Jay-R, known by his clients as ‘Coach J,’ first came to Thailand 14 years ago in search for a better life after college. Taking on English teaching and telecommunications jobs, he got a foothold in the Kingdom but wasn’t really happy with his working life – he wanted to do something he was truly passionate about. 

Fast forward to 2009 and Coach J took his love for pugilism and, with an initial B1,400 investment to buy focus pads, set up Lion’s Head Boxing, a personal training service for anyone wanting to learn what he calls “the sweet science.” Working hard, he earned his World Boxing Council (WBC) certification and today, aged 32, he has 32 private clients and also works in partnership with The Lab, taking care of its boxing business.

Henning Biskopsto, Founder

ONLINE food delivery service GoTasty started in June 2012 in the suburbs of Bangkok with a focus on Thai restaurants and Thai customers, bringing not only top-end foreign international restaurants online, but also collaborating with local Thai street kitchens. As a small company with limited resources, GoTasty has focused its efforts on customer service and growing by word of mouth from satisfied customers. “This allows us to spend the extra effort it requires to collaborate with the smaller local vendors and bring them online,” explains Henning. “Not only does this give vendors the opportunity to grow, but it also means average Thai people have cheaper food options, allowing them to not only use food delivery on special occasions, but also as part of their everyday routine.”

John Tolmie, Managing Director

MONROE Consulting Group is an executive level recruitment agency operating in predominantly emerging markets. Unlike most direct search companies, the company does not work with hefty upfront retainers, preferring to prove its abilities in a manner that requires the company to be successful. “This has opened up large markets that have always desired the services of a professional executive search agency but were reticent about paying up-front costs,” says John. “Placing quality at the heart of everything we do has also brought financial success with our profit growing from a loss making situation in 2009 to $500,000 profit in 2013, and in Monroe being voted Best Recruitment Company (Under $35M) and Best Overseas Operation at the recent Global Recruiter awards.”
