ASEANpreneurs Youth Leaders Network
The ASEANpreneurs Youth Leaders Network (ASEANpreneurs for short) is a student organization dedicated to promoting entrepreneurship in the ASEAN region. We at ASEANpreneurs believe the ASEAN region is becoming a stable, prosperous and a highly competitive region. Economic integration and entrepreneurship are essential for the growth and globalization of homegrown ASEAN companies.
Moreover, we believe that there is a huge amount of untapped potential among the ASEAN youth and we believe this potential can be harnessed to build a strong entrepreneurial community to support and encourage economic growth.
This becomes even more relevant as ASEAN members work towards building an ASEAN community by 2015, and ASEANpreneurs aims to be the regional hub of entrepreneurship facilitating community-building through innovation.
As a part of NUS Entrepreneurship Society, ASEANpreneurs is composed of a student management which is highly motivated and dedicated to the cause of entrepreneurship. Over and above organizing events and competitions we also take part in workshops and training sessions that develop our leadership skills and business acumen.
