NTU@one-north is a campus extension of Nanyang Technological University located in Singapore’s research and development and high technology cluster. It houses the university’s Alumni House and Executive Centre.
There’s plenty to do after (or even during!) the conference each day. Take a break by enjoying a stroll at one-north Park, which spans the entire length of the one-north district. Nearby, The Star Vista, located next to Buona Vista MRT, offers a variety of shops and restaurants. You may also wish to explore Holland Village (just a 20-min walk). This vibrant neighbourhood is well-known for its food, shopping, art and culture, and bars.
