A Head for Business, A Heart for the World

[Ho Chang Tat]

Hi all,

it seems that Monday, 22 Oct, will be the best day to meet.

Is it possible to start earlier as some people cant stay for long if start too late.

Can we start at 2:30pm on Monday instead.

Who cant make it?

[Ho Chang Tat]

Dear All,

After consolidating the availability of everyone,

This is our confirmed first meeting.

Date: 22 Oct 12, Monday

Time: 4:30pm - 6:15pm

Venue: NTU Innovation Centre, Room 99 (with NIEO) imprinted on the door.

Directions: If stopping at NBS bus-stop, walk up the flight of stairs that says "Innovation Centre", you will see a "Reception" Office, its right opposite it.

For those who are not sure, its just beside Pitchstop Cafe. If cannot find, can wait for me there.

If anything arises, you can contact me at 98630165. 

By the way, there's good news now. We now have a choice of 2 Projects to choose from. 

Cookie Project

In Germany, Firmenkeks have disadvantaged people bake cookies customised for corporate clients, and this project has been such a big hit in their city. More info can be found at this site: http://www.firmenkeks.de/

The basic idea is that the cookies will have the company's logo on it with nicely-wrapped packaging bringing out corporate colours and any intended message the company wishes to convey to their clients or staff.

We feel that this is a potentially great idea as we dont know of anyone selling biscuits to corporates.

They are cheap as well. And with the added factor of giving back to the community, I believe many corporates will want it as biscuits are quite the Singaporean staple as well.

We will do a vote on Monday itself to decide which project to undertake.

Agenda for 1st Meeting:

1. Introduction

2. Team Dynamics

3. Choice of Sewing or Cookie Project

4. Project Info

5. Team Charter

6. Split Market Research job to members 

          a. Industry

          b. Customers

          c. Competitor

          d. Look at successful overseas model

          e. Search for potential partners

7. Introduce Business Model Canvass (BMC)

On meeting 2, we will teach you all about the Business Model Canvass and discuss on the business model based on the market research u all have done.

For any questions, please contact me.

Thanks.
