We are bringing together the Singaporeans involved in startups and technology together in an inaugural meetup. Meet Andrew Ng (Professor, Stanford University; Co-founder, Coursera; Raffles alum), Christopher Cheang (Consul-General, Singapore), and other Singaporeans working at startups and tech companies in the area.
