What the Students Said 
"NOC provides a great learning process that could help develop an ordinary person into an extraordinary one, a good leader into a better leader, and transform the person into a great entrepreneur one day. I am still learning and I sincerely wish I will be a great entrepreneur myself one day."
| -- Jason Jiang,Facility of Arts and Social Sciences, NUS College in Silicon Valley July 04 |
"One of the most valuable takeaways during my internship in
a 6-member start-up was being right in the midst of the battle that the
founding team had to grapple with. It has given me a rare chance to see
and understand first-hand elements needed for new ventures to take off.
It has also sharpened my eye for potential business opportunities."
| -- Heng Eu Jin, NUS Faculty of Engineering, NUS College in Silicon Valley July 02 |
"Entrepreneurs don't give fishes to people. Neither do they
teach people to fish. They revolutionalize the entire fishing industry with
disruptive technology!"
| -- Tay Kae Fong, NUS Faculty of Engineering, NUS College in Silicon Valley July 02 |
"At Silicon Valley, we are growing at an exponential rate
in all aspects. We see our colleagues' arduous hard work, and thus we become
encouraged and uplifted. We feel the sweet harmony from our company, thus
we treat everyone equally well, or possibly better, as a return of how we
are treated. We learn the tearful success stories from adroit entrepreneurs,
and thus we start thinking how to accumulate assets from this moment on
in order to catch up with them and hopefully excel them. Silicon Valley
is a place full of treasure, and it needs people with acumen to discover
its value."
| -- Lou Qin, NUS School of Computing, NUS College in Silicon Valley Jan 03 |
"My one year stint in Silicon Valley has taught me that successful
entrepreneurs almost always fail but it is their never say die attitude,
their risk-taking nature, the passion, intellect and energy that pushes
them forward to achieve the financial and personal freedom they have today."
| -- Serene Ong, NUS Faculty of Science, NUS College in Silicon Valley Jan 02 |
"NCSV is a unique community, no where else will you find the
best and most creative people from extremely diverse background connected
to each other in such a deep manner. We started off as strangers, ended
up best of friends - in between were the blood sweat tears that demolished
barriers; that broke traditions and preconceptions; that destroyed closed-mindedness.
We emerged from the experience carrying an invaluable learning experience
from each other; NCSV will always be the cornerstone of our entrepreneurial
life."
| -- Cheung Yik Darius, NUS Faculty of Engineering, NUS College in Silicon Valley Jan 03 |
"Challenge!! Ganbatte! Challenging yourself to juggle both
work and play... meeting and learning from people from all walks of life..."
| -- Gladys Lee, NUS School of Business, NUS College in Silicon Valley Jan 03 |
