Take a young person with a great idea, add a desk, broadband connection, printer and access to a kettle. Set them to work in a room full of people who think like them, and stir in mentorship, business coaching and a heap of networking. What can’t such a group of young dynamic business, arts and social entrepreneurs come up with? This is what business start-up incubator, Vibewire, is all about. And Mary Nguyen is passionate about it.

She joins us at Business21C Weekly to talk about young entrepreneurs. Mary Nguyen is on the board at Vibewire, a non-profit organisation that supports young people to shape their world through media, arts and entrepreneurial opportunities.

We also are also joined by Alfred Lo. Alfred is entrepreneurship in action. As co-founder and director of Axle8.com, in partnership with Jin Liew, Alfred has just launched a social platform for real time geolocation messaging and discovery. What? It’s an app that lets you know what is going on in venues and businesses around where you are, now and its coming to an iPhone near you, soon. Alfred takes us through some of the highs and hurdles of life in a tech start up; a life Alfred clearly loves.
