    WHAT started out as a single classroom on the second storey of a shophouse in South Bridge Road back in 1964 is now one of Singapore’s leading private education and lifelong learning institutions with two campuses that have a combined area of about 20 football fields.

    The Singapore Institute of Management (SIM) turns 60 this year, and it is celebrating the milestone in a big way with the launch of a new fund that will be worth S$60 million over the next decade, starting from 2025.

    This is an increase from SIM’s current annual disbursement of S$1 million on average for the past five years.
