<p>Mirroring American inventor and artist Paul Budnitz’s pithy observation, "Everything beautiful that we create in life requires a leap of faith”, entrepreneur Charles Yeo founded SGX-listed Vividthree Holdings Ltd nearly two decades ago on a combination of hope, trust and passion.<br><br>“In those early years, it was all about making ends meet and surviving with&nbsp;whatever limited choices we had at the time,” Yeo recalled.<br><br>“Like myself, my co-founders Sky Li and Jay Hong came from humble backgrounds. We thought of starting our own business together, and since we had a passion for digital entertainment, we took a leap of faith and established Vividthree.”<br><br>And it was this unshakeable, shared faith that laid the foundation for Vividthree’s 19-year journey, where it evolved from a small multimedia production company into an established digital content producer today.&nbsp;<br><br>“At the end of the day, you must believe, believe, believe, because ultimately, thoughts become things!” Yeo pointed out. “Believing is a process of internalisation. If you believe in what you do and enjoy what you do, things will fall into place, and you will get to where you are meant to go.”<br><br>Yeo, who is also Vividthree’s Managing Director, graduated from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts with an Associate Diploma in Multimedia (Distinction) in 2000.
