The inovgate acceleration fund program offers an intensive four-month program for dynamic tech companies looking to target the rapidly growing Southeast Asia market. Only companies with unique products, technologies, services, plus a working prototype and initial funding will be considered.
The acceleration fund program begins with several weeks of intensive preparation in Israel, followed by two months of meetings, pitches and networking in Singapore.
While in Israel, selected companies work with our team of marketing, finance, technology and Southeast Asia experts, in order to prepare you for success in Singapore.
On completion of the Israeli portion of the program, the inovgate team and participating companies relocate to Singapore for several months of meetings, pitches, and networking activities. We’ll introduce you to potential investors, customers, partners and distributors in Singapore and the region, and arrange and accompany you on a road show to an additional Southeast Asian market.
inovgate provides you with office space in both Israel and Singapore, and our local team is at your service to arrange additional meetings, follow ups, and help you optimize your time.
Once you’ve completed the initial program, the Singapore office will be at your disposal and act as your local point of contact and representative.
We hold a minimum of two sessions per year with 6-8 companies participating in each session. Once a company has completed the initial program, we continue to work with these “graduates” and offer services as well as a base in Singapore.
