Belgian entrepreneur Jérémy Artan de Saint Martin arrived in Macao in 2009 to help open a hotel, and now runs a tech company and a waffle brand while raising a family in the city.

“Macao’s opportunities are endless,” says Jérémy Artan de Saint Martin, Founder & CEO, iExcel Technologies & Liège.

The Belgian first came to Macao in 2009 to support the opening of a hotel. He now runs iExcel Technologies and Liège, the waffle brand he created with his wife, Maggie, 10 years ago.

“Starting a business in Macao is fairly easy,” he says. “If I had to describe Macao in one word, I would say ‘possibilities’.”
