NELBD Innovation Hub Week 3 Public Programmes
About this Event
New Everyday Life, By Design (NELBD) takes you on a journey across 17 North East Line MRT stations and two hubs. Through stories and experiences along the way, familiar parts of everyday life take on a new light.
From 14 November to 6 December, NELBD public programmes will be held every week at Temasek Shophouse (Impact Hub) and Nexus at Punggol Coast Mall (Innovation Hub).
At Nexus at Punggol Coast Mall, imagine what everyday life could look like tomorrow, from the food we eat and the materials we build with to the technologies and systems that run our city.
NELBD public programmes are available at $5 ($6.80 incl. GST and platform fees) per participant. Upon attendance, attendees will receive a partial refund covering the base ticket price and GST. The S$1.24 Eventbrite platform fee is non-refundable.
