Chew Kheng Chuan

CHEW Kheng Chuan (Chinese: 周庆全), or ‘KC’ Chew, is an independent consultant in philanthropy in Singapore. He was appointed Chief University Advancement Officer at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore on May 2009, a post he held until February 2012. At NTU, he oversaw the Communications, Development and Alumni Affairs functions.

During his appointment at NTU in June 2009, the University received its single largest gift ever – S$150 million from the Lee Foundation, towards the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine to be jointly established with Imperial College London. With the enhanced matching from the Singapore Government, the sum was boosted to S$400 million, making it the largest private gift ever recorded in Singapore.

Prior to joining NTU, he was the Vice-President of Endowment and Institutional Development at the National University of Singapore (NUS) (2007–2008). He was also the Founding Director of NUS’s Development Office (2003–2006). During his time at NUS, KC Chew provided leadership to the Development Office which saw NUS raising S$1.5 billion, more than four times what it had raised in the previous 12 years.

Acknowledged as one of the most successful fundraisers in Asia, KC Chew is Chairman of The Substation Ltd and a Board Member of the Intercultural Theatre Institute (formerly the Theatre Training & Research (Singapore) Ltd).

In 2002, KC Chew co-authored and edited Chew Boon Lay: A Family Traces its History, a multifaceted work that combines a biography of the noted immigrant pioneer Chew Boon Lay, with an exploration of the contributions made by his family to the region.
