Angkea Som

Chad Grospe

Vice President, Asia Pacific, Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.

Known and worked with Angkea for more than twenty years, including his years at Royal Caribbean's Miami headquarters and now across APAC. He originated the flagship RC x BYD partnership campaign, brought real structure to CRM, and led the company's AI Visibility work early — building prototypes and navigating GEO before it was a mainstream conversation. Angkea operates like an owner of the outcome, never a vendor.

Vicky Chen

Managing Director, KIKO

Worked together for over five years — as media partners, technology partners, and now co-architects of a shared commercial practice. Angkea builds things that last: not just relationships, but the commercial infrastructure and governance that make enterprise deals sustainable at scale. If you're considering working with him as a client, partner, or investor, you're in good hands.

Angkea's been my co-founder at KOPI for over two years, leading our media, partnerships, and AI Visibility practice with a rigour that raises the bar for everyone around him.

You will not find a more committed or genuine growth leader in this market.
