Our Mission

At Spirit of Enterprise (SOE), we aim to Honour and Inspire.

SOE was established in 2003 with the following mission:

To promote and advance the entrepreneurial spirit in Singapore by honouring local self-reliant entrepreneurs operating small and medium-sized businesses; and
To inspire Singaporeans, especially the young, to become entrepreneurs by facilitating interaction, communication and knowledge dissemination and interaction between students and entrepreneurs.

SOE has spent close to a decade honouring homegrown entrepreneurs, and initiating and executing programmes for young beneficiaries, giving them opportunities to interact with and learn from entrepreneurs.
