Join us at 830pm, Wednesday 22nd Feb, at Home Club (20 Upper Circular Road, #B1-01/06, The Riverwalk, Singapore 058416). Register here.

From this piece:

“Backed by i/o Ventures, a well-known Silicon Valley startup accelerator, Golden Gate’s partners, investors, and mentors originate from the Silicon Valley and all around Asia.

Vinnie co-founded Lefora, a forum hosting service that was later acquired. He’s also the organizer of the SuperHappyDevHouse in Singapore, a premier hackathon event that originated from Silicon Valley.

Jeffrey is the co-founder of Battle Ventures, a technology incubator  in Singapore with a portfolio across Asia. He also started the Founder Institute in Asia, which has graduated over 40 companies so far.

Providing the support network from Silicon Valley is Paul Bragiel, co-founder of multiple successful companies, including i/o Ventures. He travels frequently to Asia.”
