TiEmpower Her Talks: Resilience and Impact in a Founder's Journey
Join us for an energising TiEmpowerHer panel, "Resilience and Impact in a Founder's Journey", hosted by TiE Singapore as part of the TiE Women Program.
In this thought-provoking conversation, we bring together two inspiring women founders who have built purpose-driven ventures across borders and industries:
Pauline Wray, a strategic growth leader who has helped scale financial innovation across Asia, bringing deep expertise in leadership, transformation, and venture ecosystems. Masami Sato, a serial social entrepreneur and founder of B1G1, who is redefining business as a force for good.
Together, they’ll unpack both the emotional and strategic aspects of building something that lasts, from setbacks that strengthen, to values that anchor, to the impact that keeps founders going.
Expect this panel to reveal the quiet grit, clarity, and conviction behind their journeys.
Date & Time: 18 June | 6:00 – 8:00PM SGT Location: Bank of Singapore, 63 Market St, S 048942
Moderated by Kanchana Gupta, founder of vLookUp.ai - a purpose-driven mentoring platform empowering women through access, community, and connection.
