Young Singaporeans aspiring to start up social enterprises can now do so with the help of a new Youth Social Entrepreneurship Programme for Start-Ups. The scheme – which has a $250,000 annual budget – was launched on Sunday by the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF). It came about after the MSF teamed up with two organisations – the SMU Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship and the NUS Entrepreneurship Centre – to explore development in social enterprises. Both universities will provide mentorship and support for their students and graduates wanting to venture into this area.
