Prior joining the startup, Amelia headed her own PR agency, Perseid Consultancy, which was acquired within 2 years of its operations.

According to the company Amelia’s experience would be ‘vital in creating successful local launches and innovative marketing solutions in the content and brand activation space’.
The company has also appointed Iskandar Ezzahuddin as its country director in Malaysia.
Iskandar will lead GoBear’s business efforts in Malaysia, overseeing the company’s strategic direction while continuing to drive business and user growth.
