Biography
Ron Sim is the founder of OSIM International, maker of high-end massage chairs.
He took the company private in 2016 when its shares had dropped steeply from their 2014 high.
In both 2018 and 2022, V3 Brands Asia, part of his V3 Group, filed for an IPO in Hong Kong but shelved it due to market volatility.
He owns a majority stake in the popular Bacha Coffee, a more than century-old Moroccan cafe chain, in Singapore.
Sim also has a sizable property portfolio that includes a stake in Perennial Holdings, which was taken private in 2020.
