Making a change? New Fund can help by Vivi Zainol
August 24, 2005 by Bernard Leong
I refer to the above article in Straits Times (Needs online subscription).
This new scheme is very suitable for entrepreneurs out there, particularly for those who are aspiring social entrepreneurs. You can suggest and implement your ideas by applying to the funds involved.
I thought that the assessment criteria for the idea is quite similar to a simple executive summary submitted to business plan competitions.
The URL direct to the application of the Young ChangeMakers is here.
So all of you out there, it’s time to pitch your idea and make it happen.
Yours Sincerely,
SG Entrepreneurs Editorial Board
