About this Event
Looking for genuine business networking in Singapore without the hard sell or the tech-startup echo chamber? You've found it.
The Singapore Entrepreneurs Network (SEN) has been running free, no-frills entrepreneur networking sessions since 2005 with roots going back to 2002. This is one of our regular monthly sessions. Drop in, buy a drink, and start a conversation.
With over 20,000 members and 633 events hosted across two decades, SEN is one of Singapore's longest-running and most active entrepreneur communities.
Who shows up
SEN attracts a genuinely mixed crowd, and that's the point. On any given Thursday you'll meet:
- Students and aspiring founders with their first business idea
- Fresh startups and early-stage founders
- Established entrepreneurs and SME owners
- Corporate professionals seriously considering the leap
- Freelancers and independents building their own path
- Investors and advisors
- Foreign entrepreneurs and expats building in Singapore
Every industry. Every stage. All equally welcome.
What to expect
No agenda, no formal programme, no keynote speeches, no hard pitching. Just a room full of people who are building something or thinking seriously about it, talking openly with others who get it.
SEN is known for being genuinely diverse, refreshingly direct, and free of the "tech founders only" attitude that dominates most Singapore networking events. People disagree here. People speak freely. That's what makes it worth showing up.
Our community standard
This community runs on one principle: honest conversation between real people doing real work. Claims are welcome. Fabrications are not. If you state credentials, be prepared to substantiate them.

About SEN
In 2002, Nicholas Chan was one of eight co-founders of Project:Senso, a pioneer entrepreneur gathering in Singapore. Nicholas subsequently spun off the Singapore Entrepreneurs Network in 2005; the networking events were working, people kept coming back, and he decided they deserved a permanent home and a life of their own. Two decades on, SEN counts over 20,000 members and runs affiliated chapters in Malaysia, Myanmar, and Taiwan.
