IMPACT HUB

Preserving the Past, Shaping the Future — Temasek's 50 By Fifty Series

23 Aug 2024

As part of its 50th anniversary, Temasek is presenting 50 stories from its staff, alumni, and beneficiaries who have been a part of Temasek's journey. 

Once completed in 2025, the expanded Temasek Shophouse will not only honour heritage and celebrate communities but also foster a regenerative future, says Ms Yvonne Tay, General Manager of the social impact hub.

The expansion will triple the space housing Temasek's philanthropic ecosystem, and provide a greater number of social entrepreneurs, charities and ground-up initiatives with the resources to connect, collaborate and catalyse solutions to social and environmental challenges.

"The vision is to create a hub that not only honours heritage and celebrates communities but also fosters a regenerative future."

— Yvonne Tay, Temasek Shophouse


Now overseeing the meticulous restoration of these heritage buildings, Yvonne reflects on her personal journey and is encouraged to note how the hub has evolved from a novel concept to an effective placemaker and a thriving ecosystem.

”To truly make a difference, impact should not just be for the present, but sustained for generations to come,” she says.

As Temasek’s philanthropic arm, Temasek Trust is a steward of philanthropic assets, advocate of sustainability, and catalyst of positive impact. Temasek Shophouse is a social impact hub and home to the Temasek Trust ecosystem and like-minded co-working partners.

In December 2023, Temasek Shophouse held its 'Lights Out Celebration' before kicking off the expansion renovations. The event featured musicians from the Let’s Jam community, an inclusive programme that unites people of different ages, backgrounds, and abilities through music, along with a coffee appreciation workshop by social enterprise Foreword Coffee Roasters, one of Temasek Shophouse’s resident café.
