The 7th SCL Annual Dinner held on 22 July 2015 at &Sons Bacaro was a well organised event and well received by those who were present. The attendees included professionals from all walks of life within the construction industry, including lawyers, consultants and contractors. As the guests arrived, Aperol spritzes and wine were served, whilst members chatted and networked amongst themselves. Some familiar faces were present, as well as many new. As the guests sat down in anticipation of the feast which was soon to be served, SCL chairman Darren Benger delivered a welcoming speech and introduced the guest speaker, Mr Peter Chua, who would later be giving an after dinner speech. The dinner was served, which consisted of several different Italian delicacies including various meats, fish and pasta dishes followed by an assortment of delicious desserts. Following dinner Mr Peter Chua President, Singapore Institute of Building Limited (SIBL), delivered an insightful and interesting speech on innovation within the construction industry, entitled “Entrepreneurs or Technopreneurs for the Build Environment Industry, Then and Now”. This was apt considering that SCL (Singapore) had recently signed an MOU with SIBL, and both parties were looking forward with enthusiasm to a mutually fruitful relationship. The consumption of fine Italian wine and networking by SCL members and their guests continued well after the dinner until it was unfortunately time to go home. To sum it up it was a fantastic occasion enjoyed by all who attended.
