Ken Crouse Email & Phone Number

Singapore

As an independent consultant, I focus on strategy, investment, and analytical work. Typical projects have included designing investment strategies in the casino industry, rationalizing trading terms for a wine distributor in Australasia, writing the 10-year strategic plan for a business school in Europe, and appraising a pharmaceutical company in China. I have also raised money, launched products, and done multiple deals across Asia for an online casual game company.

Singapore & Portland, Oregon, Usa

I co-founded Pacme Corporation, a logistics provider of small package consolidation and forwarding services for overseas customers who want to shop online in the US. I designed the website, warehouse software, operational procedures, and the unique customer service system. The service garnered spectacular customer reviews (https://pacme.com/testimonials), but we couldn't quite get to break even as a large-scale operation. In 2017, we chose our best 150 customers and now run it as a boutique service business.

Lake Tahoe, Nv

I held several general manager positions at Caesars, and most recently served as the general manager of Harrah's in Lake Tahoe, NV. The position oversaw 3 casinos, 2 hotels, 9 restaurants, marketing, finance, and had over 2500 employees.

San Francisco Bay Area

I was the founder of this small $10m emerging technology investment fund. I raised capital on and off shore from about 30 investors and was the portfolio manager. Yeah, 2001 was a rough year.

San Francisco Bay Area

I led M&A transaction teams for buyside and sellside clients for Broadview International (since acquired by Jefferies), the most prolific investment bank at the time focused on mergers and acquisitions in the technology sector in Silicon Valley.
