I2I 2-Day Workshop For The IDM Industry – 4-5 Aug

Are you an IDM company, or an entrepreneur with an IDM idea? Would you like to raise funds to start or grow your IDM company? Co-organized by Expara and the Media Development Authority of Singapore (MDA), this comprehensive 2-day Idea To Investment (I2I) workshop is designed to improve the business skills, business plans and presentation skills of local media and IDM companies and to help them to connect with and raise money from potential investors.

About The Workshop

During the two-day, intensive, hands-on workshop, participants will develop the key elements of their business strategy, business plan, financial model and investor presentations. The second day of the workshop will includes a pitching session, where participants will pitch to a panel of local investors who will evaluate and provide feedback on their plans.

I2I is open to all sectors of the media industry, and to companies of all sizes, maturity and stage of development.

All participants will receive a copy of the 2010 edition of the Media Entrepreneur’s Guide to Singapore, the definitive resource for media entrepreneurs looking to raise funding for their business in Singapore.

In each I2I cycle, up to 4 companies will be selected from among the workshop attendees to receive up to 20 hours of intensive coaching and mentoring services (I2ICM).

Who should attend?

This workshop is designed for participants who have a serious interest in starting or growing
a scalable IDM business – a business which can reach a significant size. It will be especially
useful for participants who are interested in seeking venture funding for their business and
who want to increase their chances of obtaining funding from venture capitalists, angels and
other venture investors.

How do we help you get from Idea to Investment?

This is not a “how to write a business plan” course. It is an intensive, hands-on workshop, in
which participants will develop their existing IDM business or IDM business ideas into an
actual business plan which they will be able to present to potential venture investors.
