Beginnings

Kannappan Chettiar started his entrepreneurial journey in the 1990's at the age of 25, building a successful private education empire in Singapore. As a bold contrarian, he brought UK and Australian higher education to Singapore at a time when most Singaporeans were seeking to pursue their degrees overseas.

He founded Stansfield College, Singapore in 1993 and subsequently became its Chairman and Chief Learning Officer of Learning. Prior to this, he was the Managing Director of John Winfield Consultants and Singapore Institute of Commerce.

New Frontier

In 2005, witnessing the devastation of the 2004 tsunami and gaining awareness of climate change, KC shifted his focus to scientific exploration in engineering. Driven to find real-world solutions, he began researching renewable energy, recognizing its potential for a sustainable future.

​

Over the years, KC has developed and patented several renewable energy battery technologies. He has also authored a book titled Switching Battery Para-SeriesTM Connections and collaborated with academics from Universidad Nacional de Colombia (UN), Colombia and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Germany in the IEEE Smart Grid Competition 2023 where the team was ranked Runner-up.
