His passion for our mission, depth of company building experience leading Razer from Series A to IPO, and exemplary leadership will be invaluable as we chart our next chapter in our mission to inspire the world to start selling,” says Quek.
“Lucas, Marcus and I look forward to working with Edwin and learning from each other to better serve our community of tens of millions of users across our eight markets in Asia, and to make secondhand the first choice,” Quek adds.

“Carousell is on the cusp of spearheading a powerful new era in online commerce. It is not like any of the businesses I have helped build before. Being a fan and user of the platform, it led me to connecting with Siu Rui many years ago. I have since continued to admire the co-founders and their journey in building Carousell to become a truly people-oriented, mission-focused company. I am truly honoured to be part of the team’s journey as Carousell continues to be at the cutting edge of reimagining online classifieds and becoming the leading brand in key vertical segments,” says Chan.
