Great to be part of the FLA (Singapore) Networking Event yesterday at Alter Ego! It was a wonderful evening connecting with fellow members of the franchising community, sharing insights, and exploring new opportunities for collaboration.
A special thank you to Franchising & Licensing Association (Singapore) for the warm welcome and for presenting our Founder & Managing Director, Lee Bee Seng Elson, with the certificate of membership.
We’re excited to officially be part of the FLA family and look forward to contributing to the growth of the franchising ecosystem in Singapore and beyond.
This session featured an insightful panel discussion on the timely theme: "Singapore vs Johor – Navigating Competition, Costs and Cross-Border Shifts"
💬 Key topics explored:
🌏 How franchise leaders are adapting to shifting consumer and talent flows across the Causeway
🚉 The impact of the upcoming RTS Link (2026) on operational planning and growth
🔀 Whether Johor and Singapore are complementary markets — or competing more directly than ever.
We’re grateful for the time and insights shared — and we look forward to seeing everyone again at our the next networking session in September!
Update:
We’re proud to share that we will be joining Franchise & License Asia (FLAsia) 2025 this September as an official exhibitor!
