Speaker : Mr. Kevon Cheung (Co-founder and COO)
Kevon is the COO and Co-founder of First Code Academy, an education and
technology company providing tailored coding programs for kids aged 4 to 18 years
old in Hong Kong, Singapore, Taipei, Shanghai, and Shenzhen. First Code
Academy’s mission is to empower the next generation to become creators of
technology.
Kevon's passion for technology started at the age of 14 when he was tinkering on
the Internet and built a number of websites that attracted thousands of users. He
later attended Babson College in the United States to major in Entrepreneurship,
which convinced him that to make an impact on the world, it requires taking lead and
creating true values. Prior to First Code Academy, Kevon was a Software Engineer
in Singapore writing code for web and mobile products. With his mix of business and
technical background, he now focuses on Operations, People Operations, and
Software Engineering at First Code Academy.
Kevon speaks regularly at schools, events, and conferences about how everyone
can get involved in inspiring young kids to explore technology and coding. When not
at work, he is likely reading a book or running outdoors.
