Talent Trust is a Singapore charity which helps senior business volunteers to mentor small charities and to transfer management, senior administration and marketing skills to them, thereby increasing their effectiveness and increasing the number of people they are able to help. Talent Trust is based on the work of Pilotlight, the UK\'s leading business charity. Talent Trust will be going live in late 2015. The board of directors is in final formation stage, but we have already appointed senior representatives of Spotify, Linkedin, Brunswick PR, among others.

ABOUT BRIAN GILLIES
I am a property professional with decades of experience in many property sectors including finance, investment, development and design. I have worked on many mixed use projects often involving complicated site assembly or listed buildings. I have worked for a local authority, in private practice, in institutions and have run my own companies.I also take great pleasure in giving back through my commitment to charity. I have been heavily involved in charities helping victims of domestic violence, the families of drug addicts and alcoholics, and through my role as a foundation board member of Pilotlight, one of Britain\'s most successful business charities. I worked directly with Singapore government bodies to found a similar charity \"Talent Trust,\" which connects local charities with experienced business people. I have also set up the fund raising ventures \"100 People Doing Good,\"\"100 Women Doing Good\" and \"Quiz Wars.\" To date, we have raised approximately dollars for small charities.
