About Event

Iterative is hosting an event, exclusively tailored for women founders and tech leaders. Join us for this virtual panel featuring three dynamic coaches and thought leaders as they dig deep into important topics.

​This event will be recorded. The recording will only be shared with registered participants.

Expect honest dialogue and practical tips from our panelists and moderator:

  • Gail Wong, a financial advisor and 3x certified coach with a practical and trauma-informed approach

  • Ivna Curi, an insightful thought leader with experience training 20k+ participants in assertive communication, speaking up and psychological safety

  • Michele Lum, an executive coach with 180+ clients, and an award-winning marketer and communicator

  • Yolanda Lee, a purpose-driven leader with 10+ years spearheading projects and solving problems across Africa, Asia Pacific and the Middle East.

Attendees can expect to walk away with concrete tactics that can be immediately practiced and applied.

Our panelists will discuss key topics, such as:

🫥 Self Doubt – We all wrestle with self-doubt. Learn how our panelists navigate these moments and what strategies they use to overcome imposter syndrome.

💪 Assertive Communication – Understand what being assertive means (and doesn't mean), and practical tips to speak up effectively to build trust and respect.

💰Fundraising – Raising funds for your business is never easy but it can feel uniquely challenging, and possibly traumatic, for women founders. Explore these complexities and how to move forward.

This event is designed to go beyond the surface, diving into topics we all know but may not have deeply explored. Join us for an insightful event!

About Iterative

Iterative was founded for founders, by founders. Iterative's mission is to increase the GDP of Southeast Asia through entrepreneurship. To do that, we need to (1) make entrepreneurship more accessible to more people and (2) give founders the tools and support to be successful. As part of this mission, we run events like this to help founders solve their biggest problems.

​Since Iterative started in March 2020, we have raised $163M across two funds, invested in 65+ companies, 120+ founders and the total value of Iterative companies is now worth $1.2 billion.

​Iterative is actively accepting applications to our accelerator program. No fees, an upfront investment of USD $150,000 or $500,000, and 3 months of targeted support from experts and visiting partners.
