Calling all APAC startups: Give us your best pitch!
Dear founders,
For our first pitch battle of 2022, we’re inviting startups from across the Asia Pacific to pitch to Globalization Partners Asia-Pacific general manager Charles Ferguson, as well as an audience of founders, investors, and professionals from the region’s top tech companies.
The winner of this pitch battle will walk away with US$5,000 in cash and get coverage on Tech in Asia, while the runner-up will receive US$2,500 in cash. The two finalists will also get a preferential rate on Globalization Partners’ AI-driven, fully compliant global employment platform, which they can use to hire international remote teams in a matter of days.
At our last pitch battle held in October, nine startups from across the region presented their business ideas to a panel of three investor-judges from Alibaba Group, KK Fund, and Vertex Ventures.
Up for a challenge?
This time around, we’re looking for Asia-Pacific startups in the early to mid-stage from all tech sectors that have a working prototype. We’re also prioritizing those that plan to hire or grow their global remote team in the next six months.
