The 8th Start-up@Singapore kicked start with its first event, CEO Unplugged on 26th October 2006. Held at the SMU Auditorium, it was organised by NUS Entrepreneurship Centre, NUS Business School Alumni and NUS Entrepreneurship Society. JobsDB.com was proud to be the event sponsor of this prestigious event.

Three distinguished local CEOs were invited to give the audience a first hand experience on their entrepreneurial journey as well as interact with the audience in a Q&A session. They were Mr. Michael MA, CEO of Indochine Restaurant group; Dr. Theresa Chew, CEO of Expressions; and Dato Ng Kong Yeam, CEO of SA Tours.

The event ended with a refreshment break, where the participants were given the opportunity to mingle with the CEOs and hopefully pick up some tips on how to become successful entrepreneurs themselves.
