Our Founder, Jamie Meyer, never set out to be an Entrepreneur much less a Traveler. On the day she gave away just about everything she owned, Jamie made the decision to embark on a journey that she couldn't have imagined.
Somewhere in the mild panic attack she had, sitting on the floor of a storage container, giving away the last box of her things, she decided. Decided that she had to and had to without really knowing how or why. Let alone what was going to happen next. Jamie had a fledging company [this company] , a car, two suitcases and a plane ticket to a destination that she was entirely unsure about. Turned out that Jamie was right to be unsure and again found herself giving away more of her things, standing over two suitcases with absolutely no idea what to do. So, she went on an adventure, one that she had been dreaming of since she was a teenager, ticking off a long list of things that she never thought she would see or do. Jamie continued to follow that path, using her experiences to further inform and invest in her company. And in 2022, launched Jamie Meyer Enterprises. For her designing our parent company and its purpose has been nothing short of surprising and extraordinary. It is a culmination of the answers she sees for the problems we face, animated by the solutions we are asked to create. To be named by APAC Insider as the Travel Entrepreneur of the Year for 2023 is a testament to the power of embracing uncertainty, the decision Jamie didn't know she was making on the floor of that storage container and the choices she has had to face head on since https://www.apac-insider.com/winners/jamie-meyer-enterprises/ APAC Insider is committed to recognising companies and individuals changing the world of business in its dynamic and fast-paced landscape and it is an honour for our Founder to be amongst the list of Awardees. We hope that each of the Awardees' endeavours has a profound impact on the areas they work to serve. One thing Jamie has come to understand is that when faced with a challenge, it is the process of figuring it out, rather than the overcoming itself, that holds the answer. "What you don't know, you don't know. But what if everything is laid in your path so that you do?" - Jamie Meyer https://apac-insider.com https://www.jamiemeyerenterprises.com https://www.touristotraveler.au

Nine Carat was created from a deep understanding of industry dynamics and emerged to challenge prevailing norms and trends that often lack substance, are marred by missed opportunities and restrictions.
In a decade dominated by 'green-washing', 'purpose-washing' and 'hyper-growth', we stand firm in our commitment to design sustainably successful companies. By recognising the equal value of Capital [including Human, Network, and Impact], alongside infrastructure and process. Initially our Founder, Jamie Meyer, attempted to mold Nine Carat to meet conventional definitions, only to realise it stifled and diluted the scope of our work. Today we embrace our unique knowledge base and resources, harnessing them to design bespoke solutions. Which has contributed to our recent expansion into Business Reform and Community Development. We are immensely proud of our Team, Network, and Clients for their remarkable achievements. And our gratitude extends to Great Companies for sharing our story and contributing to their mission of fostering collective growth and success through entrepreneurial inspiration.

We couldn't be more grateful for these illuminating opportunities. And the People and Publications that make them shine!
