JAN / FEB 2018 THE AMERICAN CLUB
SIGNING OF NEW POOL SHELLS
Two pieces of our new swimming pool’s steel shells were brought into The Club in
October for Members to sign and leave their marks in The Club’s history. The shells,
full of signatures, have been assembled on site and tiled over. Although Members
won’t be able to see their names on the pool, they can swim in it knowing that their
names are part of the foundation!
SKIN IN THE GAME & FINTECH FORUM
The special editions of our regular networking series were met with overwhelming response, with over 60 Members and
guests in attendance at Skin in the Game, which was held in conjunction with the Distinguished Universities Alumni League
(DUAL) on October 24. 14 start-ups took the opportunity to pitch their ideas to early stage investors. The FinTech Forum
made its debut on October 30, and saw co-founder and CEO of Attores & Indorse, David Moskowitz and CEO of Bitcoin
Exchange Pte Ltd & Infocorp Technologies, Zann Kwan discussing Bitcoin and Blockchain Technology. Several attendees
even approached the speakers right after the event to set up their Bitcoin accounts!
