smu industry night for banking and financial services Industry SMU alumni business directory by smupreneurs

With the help of SMU’s Office of Integrated Information Technology Services, we take great pleasure in announcing the launch of OAR’s newly revamped alumni website, one that is easier to navigate and more user-friendly. New features include current information from live social media feeds and news postings, a university-wide alumni events calendar, and the option for Alumni Groups to customise their own group pages. SMU alumni may also access exclusive services, such as Alumni Job Board and Alumni Directory, by logging in to the online alumni community. All these at your finger tips at: alumni.smu.edu.sg

Many of the world's largest and most reputable financial institutions congregate in Singapore, adding to the diversity, size, and depth of Singapore's financial sector. SMU alumni are now well represented in the industry. To bring our alumni in the sector together, an “Industry Night” will be organised on 26th May. It is an opportunity for our alumni to network and to meet industry professionals. So do take a break from work, and enjoy drinks, canapes, and the stunning view of Marina Bay whilst expanding your professional network of contacts. Call up your peers and register today!

SMUpreneurs, our Entrepreneurs Alumni Group, has not been resting on its laurels! Soon after its launch and a recently concluded “Industry Night” attended by more than 130 alumni entrepreneurs, it has now launched a listing of SMU alumni businesses. The directory tracks 225 alumni firms, and categorises them into 10 broad areas such as Food & Beverage, Finance & Consulting, Tech, Education, etc. Its goal is to reach a listing of 1000 businesses. If you’ve yet to list your business, do contact us. It will reap rich dividends for your firm. Let's work together to strengthen the businesses of fellow alumni.
