Memories Make The Startup Journey

The #startup journey is way different to business as I know it (or should I now say, 'knew it')!

Zoom zoom zoom, after #Zoom, sharing our platform plans and how we can collaborate with Universities and Academics and Research Students.

Last week alone we spent time speaking with academics, resource managers, #edutech entrepreneurs, research students, and associations from our neighbourhood - Malaysia & Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, Australia & New Zealand; and even as far afield as the States and the Middle East.

All a fantastic learning curve to hear perspectives on #HigherEducation#Problems from around the globe, and explore ways to help #ResearchStudents develop and reach to their fullest potential.

Certainly enjoying this #Journey with Farrell Tan and Tyler Chin as we build #TheThirdDegree from the ground up.

Just a few #Memories from some of last weeks conversations. Not everything makes it to social media :P

Oh, and the first batch of #BusinessCards arrived! Tiny milestone, but nonetheless an important one!

Statement of Commitment on Climate Change (The Third Degree)

Statement of Commitment on Climate Change The Third Degree acknowledges the scientific consensus regarding the existence of climate change and the substantial contribution the human population is now making to this via our greenhouse gas emissions. Climate change is one of the biggest global health threats of the twenty-first century. Current international carbon reduction commitments are nowhere near enough to avoid this threat. Despite the urgent need for steep reductions in greenhouse gas emissions to avoid dangerous climate change, the level of global emissions continues to increase. The threat to future generations grows larger with every passing year. The current generation of adults has a responsibility to do everything we possibly can to protect the children of today and tomorrow from dangerous climate change. Hence it is of utmost importance that climate change is included as an urgent priority area for advocacy, research, policy and practice...

Dear New PhD Student

Dear New PhD Student Dear New PhD Student This is an exciting time for you as you embark on your journey towards a doctoral degree. As your supervisor, I thought I should write to welcome you and give you a few handy hints that may help both of us to survive this long journey. We both have much to learn.
