Theme: Change Makers

The name “changemakers” shows ACJC's long heritage of producing entrepreneurs and extraordinary students who make lasting impacts in their fields of work. "Change-making" has also been in our DNA and school values. Thus, we would like to promote this change to the rest of the youths in Singapore as well.

Andrew Shih

Andrew Shih is the co-founder of Aējou, Singapore’s first plug-and-play smart micro farm that is 100% conceptualised, engineered, designed, manufactured, grown and harvested in Singapore. At the tender age of 15, Andrew was diagnosed with cancer. After undergoing 6 months of intensive chemotherapy, he conquered the disease. It was during this ordeal that Andrew’s family decided to switch over to a healthier, greener diet. Fresh, home-made, nutrient and antioxidant-packed vegetable juice became a twice-daily routine. Being able to gain an awareness at such a young age of the many health benefits of consuming fresh vegetables while also learning that large amounts of chemicals and pesticides are used in the growing of these vegetables helped Andrew realize the need for great transparency and accountability in our farming practices.
