New programme for SMU undergrads to shadow SME owners
Singapore
A NEW initiative to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) secure promising, young talent and ease the skilled manpower shortage was announced on Tuesday.
Known as the Entrepreneur Shadow Programme, undergraduates in their final two years at the Singapore Management University (SMU) will have the opportunity to understudy small business owners and experience first-hand what it takes to run a business, in a tie-up by United Overseas Bank (UOB) and SMU's Asian Enterprise Institute (AEI).
