May 30, 2011 by     Email the Author

Looks like the interactive digital media incubation centre, Blk71 just got a new tenant in FounderHQ. Affiliated with Founder Institute Singapore, FounderHQ is a co-working space (~ 2000 sq ft) for founders of early stage startups.

Housed in the grander incubation region/scheme of “MediaPolis“, FounderHQ is now open for applications and admissions is “selective”. The early bird costs are S$ ~180 per month / desk but may go up to say S$ ~250 for people who join later.

FounderHQ “will host occasional events to foster entrepreneurship and also to increase visibility to the startups operating over there. Peer-peer progress tracking , regular video calls with global Founder Institute mentors / graduates, startup clinics by visiting mentors etc will be key highlights of FounderHQ.”

The other co-working spaces in Singapore include Muvee‘s BASE, Hackerspace and SmartSpace.
