Chris Lim is the Head of Operations at VIVOS, a Chartered Secretary and ACRA Registered Qualified Individual whose corporate secretarial and immigration career in Singapore began in 1997. Before VIVOS, Chris was Group Head of Corporate Secretarial at InCorp Global for more than 14 years, with a portfolio of more than 3,000 private limited companies.

I have spent my whole career in corporate secretarial and immigration work in Singapore, and I still find it deeply satisfying. There is something special about helping a founder get their company set up properly, or helping a family settle into a new country with everything in order.

I began at KPMG Singapore, where I worked on corporate secretarial matters, incorporated companies, registered branches and representative offices, and handled Employment Pass and Dependant’s Pass applications. I then spent eight years at Drew & Napier, preparing resolutions and AGM and EGM documents, filing with ACRA, making SGX announcements and supporting corporate secretarial due diligence for restructurings and mergers.

In 2008 I joined InCorp Global, where I led the group’s corporate secretarial practice as Group Head for more than 14 years. My portfolio grew to more than 3,000 private limited companies across a broad range of industries, and my teams advised on everything from new incorporations to complex restructurings, always with the Companies Act and good governance at the heart of the work.

I bring that experience to VIVOS clients every day. I like to keep things simple for clients, even when the regulations are not.
