About Event

Join us for an exclusive evening of business networking and learning.

This November, we’re bringing you something truly special—a unique opportunity to connect with fellow investors, founders, and key players in the startup flywheel while gaining invaluable insights from an industry expert.

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to invest in a company rapidly expanding overseas? Curious about the complexities of conducting due diligence on a dual-formation company? Or perhaps you’ve been weighing the pros and cons of investing in fast-growing, cross-border ventures?

This event is your chance to get answers straight from someone who’s lived it. In a dynamic 45-minute fireside chat, serial entrepreneur Melvin Yuan will reveal the lessons he’s learned throughout his career building and scaling companies overseas. His latest venture, Stellar (histellar.com), is revolutionizing how businesses navigate the challenges of operating across two continents, and he’ll be sharing firsthand insights that can shape your next investment decision.

But that’s not all— this is more than just a learning session. You’ll have the chance to network with influential founders and savvy investors, making connections that could lead to your next big deal. Whether you’re an investor looking for the next breakout company or a founder seeking growth capital, this is a perfect opportunity to engage with the right people in a relaxed, yet dynamic environment.

Don’t miss this event—consider it your shortcut to expert knowledge and valuable connections, all in one evening!

Melvin Yuan | Founder & CEO, Stellar

Melvin Yuan is a serial entrepreneur on two continents. His time as both founder and operator gives him a unique perspective on what works when doing cross-border transactions. Notably, the attention to global markets and industry-specific trends will keep you on your toes as to what to invest in and what not to. This does not mean that risk is mitigable. It means that you will take calculated risks. And there’s no better person to give the insights than someone who has been through it multiple times.

Jointly organized with:

Bay Angels

Singapore Global Network (SGN)
