Insights into the IR bid

Mr Mark Advent from Eighth Wonder Inc gave TP staff and students a rare glimpse into the IR-bid process.

TP students and staff had the rare privilege of hearing a CEO’s personal insights into his company’s proposal for the Sentosa integrated resort (IR).

Titled “Creating the Next Generation Integrated Resort”, Mr Mark Advent, chief executive of Eighth Wonder Inc, wowed the audience at the Temasek Convention Centre on Nov 24, 2006 with his company’s vision for the IR. While Eighth Wonder’s bid was not the one eventually selected by the Government, the insights into the company’s vision and thinking proved a valuable learning experience for staff and students who attended the talk.

A proud moment for this student, as Pele signs on his jersey.

As part of Eighth Wonder’s proposal included a Pele Stadium, staff and students received an extra treat when the soccer ambassador paid a special visit to the campus on Nov 28, 2006.
