About U@live

Something compelling will be launched in NUS on 27 January 2011.

U@live (pronounced “U-alive) is a special monthly forum that will showcase the many outstanding members of the NUS community – students, faculty and alumni – who have been indefatigable in championing causes that will make this a better world. Some are well known names while others are unsung heroes – all individuals driven by boundless passion, energy and courage. The focus is on the “why” and “what” of the cause, and not the profile of the speaker. This is also the spirit that underscores the tagline:Passion. Action. Inspiration.

The idea of the platform is to inspire the young of today – students and beyond – to believe in cause passionately and be committed to that belief. Hence the “U” in U@live stands for both the individual and the University that encourages him and were both the individual and the university flourish and come ‘alive’ with such ideas.

The event will be webcasted live through a dedicated website and also includes an interactive forum that allows users to send real time comments and questions to the speakers via Facebook, Twitter or MSN messenger while watching the live show!

Log on to the inaugural talk on 27 January at 11.30am and join in the conversation by posting questions and comments for the speaker.
