Event Coverage: Walkabout Singapore
     
 

On 11 May 2012, I joined Singapore’s first Walkabout Singapore event organised by Kristine Lauria who brought Walkabout from New York City to Singapore. “Like Walkabout NYC,” Kristine says, “Its aim is to put Singapore’s vibrant tech scene on the map.” This event helps aspiring entrepreneurs to inspire each other and share tools of the trade of the growing generation of entrepreneurs with the notion of celebrating the technological and entrepreneurial culture in Singapore.

If I can describe 2011’s Youth Infocomm Day in one word, it will be with the word ‘FUN’ (all in caps)! Stepping into the event venue, I was greeted by life size standees of myself and my fellow superheroes (which looked good if I could say so myself)!

The next thing I noticed was the students buzzing around. Everyone was moving from booth to booth, checking out the various projects done by the various schools to decide whom to cast their votes for the National Infocomm Club Awards 2011 (NICA 2011).

Kicking off the programme proper, Ms Grace Fu, Senior Minister of State for Information, Communications and the Arts, spoke to the crowd of almost 500 students and teachers, encouraging everyone to continue developing their talent in infocomm.
