About

Royce Sin, founder of Ekko Business Solutions, draws on 17+ years navigating complex operations at global firms (HSBC, PayPal) and scaling tech startups. He partners with owners of fast-growing service businesses ($100K-$15M) often constrained by operational friction. Through focusing on strategic optimization, simplification, and smart automation (including AI). Royce delivers practical pathways to lower costs, faster revenue growth, and effective scalability. 

Royce's journey began with an 11-year tenure at HSBC, where he immersed himself in the world of commercial banking technology. He gained deep expertise in enterprise systems, security protocols, regulatory compliance, and meticulous planning through roles in release and implementation management. Leading global transformation projects and tooling/data teams honed his ability to manage complexity, think strategically (short, medium, and long-term), and drive innovation – underscored by winning three internal innovation hackathons.

Transitioning to PayPal, Royce focused on the commercial side, designing and selling enterprise payment solutions. This experience provided invaluable insights into growth strategies, the critical importance of liquidity and efficient money movement for businesses, and the challenges within the payments ecosystem.

Seeking the agility and direct impact of the startup world, Royce joined an Embedded Banking Start up as Director of Solutions and Enablement. Here, he translated his strategic experience into tangible results within a fast-paced environment. His leadership led to:

• $100k USD (20%) annual savings in subscription costs through rigorous consolidation and migration.

• The implementation of a company-wide automation program resulting in 7 headcounts worth of effort savings.

• A 40% increase in sales demo capacity through process optimization alone, plus plans for 10x further scaling.

Royce's passion for growth and community impact extends beyond the corporate and startup spheres. As the volunteer Executive Director for a charity fundraiser, he demonstrated exceptional leadership by growing the event's fundraising from $20k to over $100k within just three years, showcasing his ability to drive results and scale operations in diverse settings. His background also includes earlier entrepreneurial work, providing media, marketing, and consulting services directly to small businesses, giving him a ground-level understanding of their unique challenges. 

This diverse journey equips Royce with a unique toolkit. He doesn't just offer theoretical advice; he partners with clients to co-create practical, actionable solutions. His approach combines:

• Strategic Foresight: Planning that considers immediate needs and long-term scalability.

• Operational Excellence: Streamlining processes and workflows for peak efficiency.

• Financial Acumen: Identifying cost savings and optimizing revenue streams.

• Technical Expertise: Leveraging technology, including AI and automation, responsibly and effectively, backed by an understanding of implementation, IP, and compliance risks.

• Measurable Results: A relentless focus on achieving tangible outcomes for your business.

Royce founded Ekko Business Solutions because he saw a gap – smaller organizations often lack access to the high-level strategic thinking and operational best practices that larger companies benefit from. He is passionate about empowering owners and founders with the tools, strategies, and support they need to navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and build resilient, successful enterprises. 

If you're leading a fast-growing small business, startup, or non-profit and are ready to optimize your operations, accelerate your revenue, and build for scalable success, Royce is ready to partner with you. Based in Greater Vancvouer, BC, Ekko Business Solutions works with clients to achieve their unique goals.
