I am very honoured to be one of the first few that were invited for their episode 6
launching event, which will officially be available to everyone starting from today.

Episode 6 explores how a social enterprise makes use of technology and innovation to bring
education to children in low-income communities. This episode was incredible.
It was inspiring and heartwarming. My eyes felt watery at the last part.

I wish I could tell you more, but I better don’t be the spoiler. So do watch it yourself at

Apart from showing us episode 6 of Sparks, we were also presented a panel of
successful social entrepreneurs which told us how DBS foundation have created opportunities
for their successes. So far DBS foundation have awarded more than $2 million in grants
to social enterprises over the region.

So why should we bother, you asked? For people that are interested in starting up a business or
for businesses that want to scale and expend, DBS is very welcoming to assist on your needs.
