About Us
Get to know NAAE — who we are, what we stand for, and how we serve the NTU alumni entrepreneurship community.
NTU Alumni Alliance – Entrepreneurship (NAAE) is an outcome-driven, trust-based entrepreneurial platform that connects NTU alumni globally and transforms relationships into real commercial impact.
NAAE is an official NTU alumni group under the Office of Alumni Engagement (OAE). We were founded in 2026 by a group of passionate NTU alumni who saw the need for a dedicated platform to support NTU entrepreneurs — one that transcends individual schools and geographical boundaries.
Unlike traditional alumni groups organised by school or region, NAAE brings together NTU alumni entrepreneurs from all schools and all countries. Our strength lies in the diversity of our members and the trust that comes from the shared NTU bond.
