Next Gen's flagship investoon gameshow is back this year with a twist - we have revamped our gameshow design, and we are proud to introduce the all new Investing Tonight Show!
Instead of the usual Kahoot game, this time we are introducing hands-on and interactive elements to our program - think charades, pictionary and the like, but with investing concepts! The best part is, our gameshow can be designed to educate about anything investing, sustainability, entrepreneurship or more!
On 28 February 2024, we partnered with the SMU Sustainable Investment Club (SMUSI) to run the very first Investing Tonight Show. We shared about the Future of Sustainable Investing Trends as well as discussed Vitasoy as an ESG investment case study.
Starting with a bang, our lively and engaging Business Manger, Persis, opened the afternoon with an introduction to Next Gen and the Investing Tonight Show. Joshua then took over as host and gamemaster to run the show.
Stock Market Charades was our very first act. Stock Market Charades is very straightforward as its name suggests. We use action cards that are Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) related and students have to act out these terms for their teams to guess.
The following are some samples of the words we curated, alongside the meaning.
Who knew that everyone had such creative ways to explain the words that are on the cards! The room was filled with laughter and applause that made our hearts full. Beyond the fun, we are glad that the game helped students to become more familiar with sustainability terms too.
Tiffany, co-founder of Next Gen Investors Endowment and Investment Professional at Star Magnolia Capital then took the stage to share about the Future Trends of ESG. She spoke about supporting various companies that are trying their best to transition into green companies, the state of ESG reporting and disclosure and how clearer definitions of sustainability and due diligence are warranted. Her sharing welcomed many questions from the students.
You are in for a treat - we are making Tiffany’s sharing available to you so feel free to download her slide deck!
Next up, we asked our participants to read our Investoon sustainability series. They were tasked to identify one 'E' and one 'S' factor, and share whether they would buy Vitasoy's stock according to the Investoon. We got them to split into groups to discuss and each group presented their answers. The students presented very thoughtful answers, breaking down various considerations from ESG factors to valuations.
And that marked the end of our very first Investing Tonight Show!
We had the participants fill up a feedback form for us and the results were pretty heartwarming. We were glad that this session had such an impact on them!
