The curriculum will cover the Metaverse and the opportunities it offers; Decentralised Autonomous Organisation (DAO); and how technology can empower SMEs, startups and brands. Jack Lim, Executive Director of SMU Academy, said, “The development of Web 3.0 will bring about a plethora of career opportunities in Singapore. For fresh graduates and mid-career switchers, working knowledge and understanding of Web 3.0 will give them a strategic advantage.”
