On 16th April, TBN Asia partnered with NUS Enterprise and raiSE to run this event for our social entrepreneurs. There was a lot of interest and the audience was engaged with a topic that resonated with their needs.
The biggest takeaway for the audience is that: while financial resources are important, it is not the entire story, as numbers only tell so much. This is evident by the number of high-profile enterprises that have failed of late, even though they were very well-funded. For purpose-driven enterprises, strategic resources should also be invested in capacity building at the individual level, because ultimately, it is the character of the Founder that steers the ship.
