IHLs
ABOUT INSTITUTES OF HIGHER LEARNING (IHLs)
IHLs are a key stakeholder in the startup ecosystem. The push to develop entrepreneurship in Singapore and promoting an entrepreneurial culture has been given a greater focus amidst the need for innovation and value creation. ACE brings IHLs together to share challenges, resources and create collaboration opportunities. With real-time data and feedback, we enhance the existing curriculum by providing experiential learning platforms to encourage students to apply what they have learned in the classroom to the real world.
Youths are the leaders of our tomorrow. At ACE, we believe that an entrepreneurial culture should be inculcated at a young age and this can be achieved by exposing and involving our youths in the startup ecosystem.
ACE, being the heart of Singapore’s startup ecosystem, seeks to build a close-knit community by engaging both the institutes and the students through various engagement, programme and events.
WHAT WE DO
- Bridge the gap between IHLs and contribute to curriculum development
- As the go-to for industry exposure, provide support for aspiring student entrepreneurs
- Build a cohesive and collaborative community of youth entrepreneurs through EDGE – Youth Wing of ACE
