Founder Simone Heng Speaking Pte Ltd
Simone Heng is a Human Connection specialist, speaker and former broadcaster. She speaks to organisations on the connection techniques which will transform how you work, live and meet people in a world where disconnection is growing. In her, one and a half decade-long career in the media industry, Simone’s job was to build memorable connections with audiences on stage, on-air, online and one-to-one. She has been invited to speak at The United Nations, Ted X and Google and has spoken on stages in Thailand, UAE, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Canada and many more. Hopping countries from the age of 17, Simone was based for 5 years on air in the Middle East with Virgin Radio’s award-winning Virgin Radio Dubai (2009-2014), on-air with Australia’s competitive Southern Cross Austereo (2014-2015) and finally back to Singapore, the country of her birth, with Class 95FM (2015-2019). Simone has studied speech writing in London under Tony Blair’s former speechwriter Philip Collins. She has a communications degree from Curtin University of Technology in Western Australia with a major in Literary Studies and a minor in Performance studies. Simone also studied in Switzerland and has also worked in Australia, the UAE and Singapore. It is a result of these cross-continental adventures that she has become a true student of Human Connection.
