As Singapore moves from a manufacturing hub, to an economy driven by
intellectual capital, the future growth opportunities exist in the
development of cutting edge ideas that have deep and resounding practical
implications. The importance of Entrepreneurship and Innovation cannot be
under-emphasised. The Entrepreneurship Special Interest Group will bring
together innovators, seasoned entrepreneurs, aspiring business owners as
well as venture capitalists to discuss ideas and opportunities that have the
capacity to scale to be the "Next Big Thing". Entrepreneurs will be invited
to share their experiences in terms of raising venture capital,
bootstrapping a business and the life experience of going through the fear
of uncertainty and still coming out ahead. Previous speakers have included
Mr. Leslie Loh, Founder and Chairman of System Access, as well as Mr.
Michael Yap, CEO of Comex and architect of Singapore's IT2000 Masterplan.
