ABOUT WESLEY NG
Wesley Ng is the CEO and Co-Founder of Casetify. With a background in Media, Ng left his day job in autumn 2011 to start his own business — Casetify, without previous experience in the start-up industry. Casetify was born out of social media, targeted to individuals who value self expression. Ng initially developed a product which allowed customers to turn their favourite Instagram photos into bespoke phone case designs.
With headquarters in Hong Kong and Los Angeles, Casetify has grown into the world's third largest tech accessories company (rank 2nd in the US, rank 1st in the world for social media following), beloved by influencers and celebrities including Lucy Hale, Kylie Jenner, Snoop Dogg, Pharrell Williams, Shay Mitchell and more. The company is the collaborative partner of choice for luxury names and of-the-moment labels such as Vetements, DHL, Moncler, Saint Laurent, Thom Browne, and Coach, who come to Ng for his knowledge on the industry and his passion for bespoke, quality accessories.
