Investing in Youth Entrepreneurship & Enterprise
The Youth are Talking
Why we Need to Listen
How is Singapore going about this
The Youth are Talking!
London - Paris - New York - Seoul - Shanghai - Singapore – Port Moresby - Honiara - Port Villa – Manila – Kuala Lumpur – Jakarta – Bangkok – Seoul – Ulaanbaatar – Geneva – Los Angeles - Mumbai –
Paris – Moscow – Sun City – Perth – Auckland – and the list goes on …..
There is far more Connectivity Between the Youth than is Realized
The New Generation is about Being Right Here and Right Now
– Today’s Generation are busy. They want things easy to buy and understand– Increasingly they want convenience and speed of operation– Citizens are looking for healthy foods and products to reduce ageing– People today are somewhat more aware of environmental issues– People do extensive research and sometimes know more about the products than their retailer– This time around people are spending less since the global financial crises
Global Trends are Impacting Needs and Wants
Today’s Youth are Aware
Dictating what and where will be bought:– RFIDs continue to increase in retail application
– Customer Centricity reemphasizes ‘made for me products’
but also increasing merging of sectors (books + cafe)– World population will be increasingly represented
by ageing Baby Boomers and Generation Y
Timing Is Ripe for Focus onYouth Business
The New Economy Realizes
Post-crises it is now about:
– Having braved the worst– Appreciation for more accountability and less complication– Having less time now consumers never want to be treated in the same way– Public consensus is in search of a fair deal and sustainability– Public questions corporate social missions

Youth & Social Enterprise “Keeps the Money Local”
Gov., Corp. and Private Involvement Needed
“Keep the Money Local” Attitude
Makes Good Sense the Community
If we imagine the any economy to be a bucket with money pouring in from various sectors
Then it makes good sense for us:– To make sure that we minimize leaks outside our economy– To ensure that within this economy the money changes hands as many times as possible
Encouraging local expenditure provides jobs and income for Singapore
Ensuring a secure longer term future for local economies

Singapore Management of Community
Ministry of Community Development Youth & Sports
“inspired and committed youth” (Pillar 2)
To develop inspired and committed youth, we aim to create an environment where
1. Youth Have a Say in national and community affairs. By consulting them on issues and recognising their contributions, youth will be more engaged in the community and have a greater sense of belonging.
2. Youth Plant a Stake in society. By getting the youth actively involved in the community so that they develop into young citizens with a sense of ownership towards society.
3. Youth Get Support to realise their potential, develop their talents and pursue their dreams. By supporting our youth so that they are able to contribute meaningfully to our society.

174 Start-Ups Receive Seed Funding Help
THE Government last year committed over $10 million to help invest in more than 20 start-ups under Spring Singapore's Start-up Enterprise Development Scheme (Seeds).
That brings to 174 the total number of firms that have received funding support through Seeds since it was introduced in 2001.
So far, more than half of the $110 million set aside for Seeds has been allocated to local start-ups, as part of efforts to groom globally competitive companies by providing vital early funding.
According to enterprise development agency Spring Singapore, 20 Seeds start-ups have since been able to generate over $1 million a year in revenue.
