NFTE Youth Entrepreneurship Competition (NYEC) 2024

Happening on 14 November 2024, NYEC is a nation-wide competition where young changemakers from underserved communities across Singapore pitch their business ideas to a distinguished panel of industry leaders.

They’re competing for a chance to represent Singapore at the World Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge (WYEC) in New York City. 

Since 2014, Halogen has exclusively run the NFTE programme in Singapore, empowering youths through entrepreneurship skills for nearly a decade.

Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE, pronounced as “nifty”) is
a funded programme designed to activate the entrepreneurial mindset
and build business skills in youth from underserved communities.

NFTE’s innovative, hands-on curriculum allows young people to learn entrepreneurial skills and attitudes through activities such as opportunity recognition and market research.

The 50-hour NFTE programme culminates in NFTE Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge (NYEC) where the top 3 students from each NFTE school will be pitching their business ideas to a panel of esteemed judges from various industries.
