The faculty of Nanyang Business School has been writing cases with an Asian focus since the 1990s, covering businesses from Kazakhstan to Vietnam.

In 2000, the Asian Business Case Centre was set up by the Nanyang Business School to promote the writing and use of case studies at the business school. In the same year it also embarked on a collaboration with the Richard Ivey School of Business (Ivey), University of Western Ontario, to jointly write case studies and encourage the use of case studies in Singapore and Asia.

The Nanyang Case Collection to-date holds over 150 case studies.

    • businessgrowth
    • Business Development and Strategic Growth

    _ (underscore symbol) -- This wildcard represents any single character in a match. For example, 200_ will match the following values:
    • 2009
    • 200e
    • 200.

    Note that search is not case-sensitive. To list all records without any filtering, just search without entering any keyword.

Charities Accounting Standard 2011 NanoBright Technologies
The Charities Accounting Standard 2011 – Implications for Singapore Charities NanoBright Technologies, Singapore: Transition into a Commercial Venture
Chan-Ng Ai Lin, Wee Beng Geok & Ivy Buche

With the issuance of the Singapore Charities Accounting Standard (CAS) on 24 June 2011, charities in Singapore that were already complying with the Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (FRS), were presented with a choice – should they continue to comply with FRS or switch to CAS? On the other hand, charities that were complying with the Recommended Accounting Practice 6 (RAP6)(Revised 2006), which would be withdrawn, had to adopt a new accounting standard. Would it be FRS or CAS?
Olaf Rieck & D. G. Allampalli

The case study on NanoBright documents the technology development and commercialisation process with limited capital grant or investment. Although the young technology firm successfully developed the nano-fluorescent materials (NFM) technology and a number of new products such as solar film, spray, paints and ink, it had to grapple with the delay in licensing the new NFM technology and the unpredictability of the process of securing commercially viable orders based on it, and manage its tight cash-flow situation of technology startup.
