WELCOME TO SINGAPORE

On behalf of EP-SI, I would like to welcome you to the World Summit Award Social Innovation Congress 2016 in Singapore. We are happy to be the presenting sponsor for the Congress. EP-SI fund is uniquely positioned to address pressing social ills through strategic partnerships with businesses – businesses that are socially innovative.

My role is to mobilise fund allocation in supporting business to drive social change. I’m an activist, who advocates for business and capitalism to take a leading role in positively influencing the shape of social landscape.

I hope we can all work together to create a true digital economy where everyone will benefit from it. I wish you all the best for the Award and hope to see you again.

I have been mentoring Singapore start-ups over 20 years. The local innovation framework is rapidly maturing toward global perspectives as a single ecosystem, which is only as good as the influences that shape it.

WSA adds the global perspective and diaspora ­effect to understanding what makes an effective effort, connected or standalone. Cultural nuances can only be understood within the immersive cooperation of the meeting of minds and sharing of learnings, for a truly united passion to do good.

Felix Lee WSA expert Singapore & Start-Up Mentor

PATRON STATEMENTS

Young people are powerful drivers of change in political, economic and social developments around the world. They have asserted themselves as critical partners in sustainable development, proposing innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges. Using the power of ICTs and social media, young people have a vehicle like never before to engage and participate. From entrepreneurs developing new technologies, to creating green jobs and more sustainable economies, young people are at the forefront of development. We must continue to recognise the valuable contributions of young entrepreneurs and work together to ensure the success of the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.

Local content is indispensable for the use of information and communication technologies for sustainable development. With the recognition of innovative, digital solutions to development challenges, the World Summit Awards (WSA) encourages women and men’s creativity, helps to share applications globally and stimulates young entrepreneurs to find local solutions. I congratulate all finalists, who contributed with their innovations to peace and sustainable development.

STORYTELLING FOR IMPACT

BUILDING A TRIBE THAT MATTERS

by Red Bull Amaphiko 29th June, 4pm and 1st July, 1pm Grand Ballroom 3

by Zikry Kholil from The Incitement, Malysia 1st July, 1pm Grand Ballroom 2

Strong stories are powerful.

Telling your story in the right way allows you to utilize this power, cut through the noise and grow your impact.

We start with a quick introduction to storytelling theory, followed by highly interactive exercises with a focus on translating those theoretical learnings into actionable practices to tell your own story.

The session ends with an exercise to simplify your story and tell it in an impactful way in a true elevator pitch scenario.

Ever heard this myth where “Build it and they will come”? Well if you build it with a vision and purpose that resonates with many, then that’s when you’re doing it right. Anyone can start a movement, anyone can create a cause. But if you want to build more than a passive, super proactive community it will take guts, sweat and heart. A community of raving, die-hard members is never built over night. Despite the hard work, there are many benefits to creating a thriving, enduring tribe.

In this Workshop in Building a Tribe that Matters, we will teach you how to start your very own tribe, your movement, your cause right from your seat.

The most important part here is where we will show you how you could make great use of your tribe in taking assertive action and let it grow organically bit by bit.
