Brandon Wade (born Lead Wey; 1970) is an American businessman who is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of InfoStream Group, an online dating company. He is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and MIT Sloan School of Management and a former software engineer. Wade's web sites have been criticised for being comparable to escort services and prostitution.
Born in Singapore to strict ethnic Chinese parents, Wade was raised in what he describes as a "Tiger Mom–type of upbringing" consisting of studying and not much else. While growing up in Singapore, Wade attended Saint Andrew's Secondary School and Hwa Chong Junior College.
In 1993, Wade graduated from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he received a Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering on an Overseas Merit Scholarship awarded by Singapore's Public Service Commission. Upon graduating in 1993, Wade opted to stay in the United States, breaking his contractual obligation to return to Singapore and forcing his parents to pay about $300,000 in damages. Wade then enrolled in the MIT Sloan School of Management, where he graduated with a Master of Business Administration in 1995.
After completing his MBA, he moved to New York City to work for technology consultants Booz Allen. He later joined General Electric as a technology infrastructure manager.
Wade is the author of two books titled Seeking Arrangement: The Definitive Guide to Sugar Daddy and Mutually Beneficial Relationships and Connecting with the IN Crowd: How to Network, Hang Out, and Play with Millionaires Online.
