I believe the gahman are well aware of the employment opportunities in your field of work, so i wouldn't worry too much about the employment aspect, they will be aware of the opportunities that you will be needing roadies, maybe lighting technician and other contract suppliers, this has a knock on effect on the employment figures, the more events you are doing, the more people maybe employed by other contractors.
Your work is involved in the entertainment service sector, its needed to boost the spending, so i think its a good thing and you will not have much of a problem.
One must be realistic, consultants and project managers for example have very little need to employ others, though they do require people to complete the tasks in hand! Its all relevant, though your plan must be very detailed to include the resources you need to fulfil your projects.
Documenting the use of others, to do some of your work will be required, the gahmen is flexible, no matter what the rules state. They want growth, they want to see your company involved in the growth, not just ticking over, while you have a good time.
If they notice any slacking off at all, then questions will be raised on your capability to build business sufficiently enough to contribute to Singapore needs.
Other industries are quite different, there is a 6 month entertainment pass for solo musicians, read moms website.
You can also employ part time workers under 35 hrs a week for your business needs when the time comes. Anybody throwing away 50k will be taken quite serious, its not a great deal of money, but it is to lose and its also good business for the gahmen too!
Your application will bet vetted by business consultants spring, they will be quite critical on your business plan to evaluate your business knowledge and experience, obviously talented people are not always good at business, and that's were gahman comes in with there own business consultants to advise and act as sparring partners, work with them if needed networking in Singapore is the best method to move forward, use the grants available for any updating of your business needs if you qualify, getting involved will all be in your favour!
