Honest conversations about building a career in tech
On 26 February 2026, Vertis hosted a special edition of Tech Talks @ Club Street titled Young Tech @ Club Street, bringing together students and early-career talent interested in starting their careers in Singapore’s tech industry.
While Tech Talks sessions typically focus on industry topics and emerging technologies, this edition was created in response to recent conversations with students at university career fairs. Many shared questions about entering the tech sector, navigating uncertainty in the industry, and understanding what working in tech actually looks like beyond the classroom.
Young Tech @ Club Street was designed as an open, honest discussion about building a career in the industry, featuring Vertis team members who shared their own journeys and experiences.
