主題︰ Social Venture Challenge and UP Singapore

Dear Friends,

2 initiatives that may tickle your fancy-

If you have an idea for a social enterprise/cooperative, the Social Venture Challenge is for you. Submit your idea before the 8^th of February and journey through business clinics, mentor sessions to refine your idea and stand the chance to win cash prizes. This is open to all nationalities and ages, so do share this with your friends abroad.

If you have an idea betters the environment or reduces our energy footprint, join the UP Singapore hackathon this weekend! Find a team to work with you on your idea and gain instant feedback from the mentors.

For those without an idea but have passion, the UP Singapore hackathon needs you too. Come down on Friday evening to hear teams pitch and join one.

See the e-flyers below for more information!

With joy,

The Grameen Creative Lab@NUS
