Description

SCGM, the organiser, invites you to come join us for a 26-hour roll-up-your-sleeves "Less Talk, More Action" event where missioners, aspiring missioners, practising missional businessmen and Christian entrepreneurs honestly work out the truth about whether their business ideas solve real customer problems, and effectively and sustainably meet market needs.


The market place is the new harvest field, and businesses (including social enterprises) and not charities, will become the strongest influence of livelihood and lives in almost every nation on earth. Christians must learn to do business.

SCGM is pioneering and staging the conversation of Missional Business in Singapore. Through this yearly event, the Missional Business Weekend, we hope business acumen will accompany missionary zeal as stakeholders gather to talk, to learn, to brainstorm, to encourage, to network, to partner, to be obedient to the call to go into the nations.

Course Description: An Entrepreneurs’ huddle …

It is an exercise of faith to go into the market places of the world. To venture into business for missions with unquestioning zeal taken for faith, and with business naivete can turn the harvest field into a minefield of adventurism. Kingdom resources are frittered away; more critically, the opportunity cost is in the souls of men.

Inspired by the very successful Startup Weekends organized every year in more than 726 cities (http://startupweekend.org), Missional Business Weekend aims to become a part of that unstoppable movement that is sprouting global communities of entrepreneurs.

In this event, practising humility and honesty and the LEAN Startup methodologies, attendees define and test their business ideas and refine their business models, acquire missional buiness leadership, find coaches and mentors, and inspire others to co-labour with them. At the end of the event, teams showcase their prototypes and receive valuable feedback from a panel of missional & business experts.
