Preface

The National Infocomm Competition (NIC) is organised by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA), together with the Institutes of Higher Learning (IHLs), Ministry of Education (MOE) and the industry. This competition aims to excite, inculcate interest and raise exposure in infocomm among students, so that they will
ultimately choose infocomm as a career.

In the 2007 NIC, 20 students from Raffles Institution, Hwa Chong Institution and Ngee Ann Polytechnic competed against 2,500 from more than 100 schools, to emerge champions, winning for themselves a knowledge acquisition trip to Silicon Valley, USA,
The trip is organised by IDA and the winners are scheduled to travel from 9-18 June 2008 where they will visit and learn from leading infocomm and digital media companies.
