What exactly is Bootstrap Alley?

In the startup world, bootstrapping simply means to run a company with little capital, and stretch your resources to their limits. Bootstrap Alley is where the most promising and dynamic tech startups are showcased at Tech in Asia’s flagship conferences. Only the most innovative, product-ready startups with demonstrated traction are accepted to Bootstrap Alley.

Tech in Asia Singapore looms on the horizon and next year marks the fifth edition of our flagship conference. We’re thrilled to be celebrating this milestone with you; you’re invited to the party! Set to happen at Suntec City Convention Centre on 12-13 April 2016, one of our conference highlights will be the most extensive showcase of startup booths at Bootstrap Alley, ever. We have had 212 startups exhibiting at the 2015 Singapore conference, and we are ready for so much more next year alongside your participation.

In line with the season of giving (Christmas is coming!) and for the first time, Bootstrap Alley booths are going at a special 2-for-1 rate – this means if you apply for a booth alongside another startup, both parties get two booths for just the price of one. It’s too good a deal to miss out on, so go on and grab another startup to sign up before the end of November.

Before you apply, do note that these are the 2-for-1 startup booth packages available to choose from:

Package 1: US$299 for 1 booth + 1 Startup Pass

Package 2: US$449 for 1 booth + 2 Startup Passes

This 2-for-1 promotion will only apply to booths of the same category, i.e. Package 1 or 2. For instance, should you decide to apply for Package 1, the second startup will also enjoy the same benefits under Package 1 (the same goes for Package 2). We have done the math for you – Package 2 is a better deal because the second Startup Pass goes at an expensive 50% discount.

Do your startup a favour, really. Where else are you going to find over 3,000 early adopters willing to give your product a try? How else are you going to get VCs to give you 1-to-1 face time? All you have to do is sign up and turn up. We’ll take care of the rest.

Still not convinced? Think about this – what do you have to lose by giving your startup a chance to shine? I’ll leave it to you to decide if your startup deserves more exposure. You know your startup best. As for me… I’ll just be waiting on the other end to see if your application comes in.
