Hi, I'm Nam 👋
RSS FeedNam Chan · aka Alfred Nam · Co-founder & CIO at AceSpeak · CTO at Wistkey · London ⇄ Hong Kong
I'm the co-founder and CIO of AceSpeak — an AI interview and public-speaking coach. From June to August 2026, we have been turning a shared dream into a real product: in the age of AI, help people rediscover — and enjoy — the joy of speaking. We are preparing for our late-August launch now.
I remain CTO of Wistkey, helping enterprises and government put AI into production. I write here about building AceSpeak, what actually works in AI and engineering, business, finance, and the 4am Ashtanga practice that keeps it all sustainable.
