News Stop till 12 August 2005

Hi all,

Some quick news on entrepreneurship happening in Singapore:

1. More nominees expected for Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year dated 3 August in Channel News Asia, Singapore.

Editor’s note: Does that mean that we should be seeing more successful small and medium enterprises ready to go global?

2. Sick boy gets his Disney wish
dated 28 July 2005 in Electric New Paper,Singapore.

Editor’s note: A professor in entrepreneurship from MIT once said that entrepreneurs are people who aspired to change things that they want to see. Yet one of the important things which they should do, according to him, is to be able to contribute back to society, helping those in need. I agree with that principle.

3. Banyan Tree honoured by London Business School for brand dated 18 July 2005 in e-Travel Blackboard (press release) – Australia

Editor’s note: We should stop bashing Creative, and look at other examples of Singaporean entrepreneurs who have successfully developed a brand and gotten themselves known to the world.
