The purpose of the Singapore Connect series is to connect WA scale-up ventures to the Singapore market (and further into ASEAN).

Our aim is to help those WA scaleups, that have capability, capacity and interest in the Singapore markets, to connect them to prospective markets and funders.

The Singapore Connect series is being delivered in collaboration by the Singapore Chamber of Commerce WA, Westpac, Steinepreis Paganin and Perth Angels.

Following our successful kick-off session on The Market Opportunity and Challenges in Perth and Singapore, we are pleased to present our second session in the series:
