What 10 leaders can tell you about starting up in Singapore

Take a sneak peek into the minds of some top VC investors and successful startup founders.

Singapore Business Review recently held a luncheon briefing following the success of the 20 hottest startups to watch in 2014 list published on Feb-Mar issue.

The briefing, which took place at Intercontinental Singapore on April 16, was attended by over 120 guests mostly startups founders, lawyers, investors, and venture capitalists.

It was a meaningful half-day event with discussions focused on four main topics including interesting trends in Singapore startup scene, funding issues, winning strategies for startups and the future of e-commerce.

Here are some key takeaways from distinguished speakers:

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
