YEC dinner and seminar


Gave a short talk at Tiara Melaka.
Khamis the president from SIFE (Student In Free Enterprise) is giving me a souvenir.
Also present was Mr.Syukor from MMU, Nutty and 2 ladies from government department.

I was 'set up' and told to wear smart casual. I brought the coat just in case, and turns out to be a right decision.

About Young Entrepreneur Center ( YEC)

The center aims at national development and planned to be the regions’ corner stone for technology commercialization and entrepreneurship advancement. The Young entrepreneur Center ( YEC) targets university students, researchers, innovators, entrepreneurs and others. According to our development plan, the next step will be the establishment of a business school to be linked to the center.

Introduction:
Working closely with local and international organizations; the YEC will focus on issues such as: capacity building, consulting, counseling and developing the local “Entrepreneurial Personality & Spirit”. Furthermore, the YEC will actively work on extending the intellectual wealth of Malaysia, and collaboration countries while maintaining strong links with the business community in general.

Entrepreneurs have a wonderful record of achievement. The great enterprises of today are almost, without exception, built on the foundations created from the vision, talent and drive of entrepreneurs. For example, the great retailers such as Walmart and Marks & Spencer, the major oil companies such as BP, and the leading consumer electronics business, Sony, are all founded by entrepreneurs of vision and energy.

WINning formula

A formula I derived myself.
If I know the total number of participants, n.

n is the total number of participants
n(n/2-1)+n/2+n, where n>2
if n=10
10(10/2-1)+10/2+10
10(5-1)+5+10
10(4)+15
answer: 55

Applications:
If I organize a concert, the entry fee starts from RM1.
The next person who buys the ticket will have to pay an additional RM1.
1st person pays: RM1
2nd person pays: RM2
3rd person pays: RM3

Total revenue
=n(n/2-1)+n/2+n, where n=3
=6

In Microsoft Excel, it is
=C1*((C1/2)-1)+(C1/2)+(C1) assuming C1 contains the total number of participants
