After spending an incredible two days at Tech in Asia Singapore 2015 and with an abundance of tweets about #tiasg2015, we sieved out some of the social media highlights to give you a glimpse of what our conference was like, if you weren’t there to experience it for yourself.
Admittedly, our morning didn’t start off so well with the snaking queues at the registration counter…

But the day slowly got better thanks to our Official Bean Bag Partner, Doob. Their bean bags were the perfect place to lounge on at any conference!

And coffee, the perfect complement.

Yup, that’s how we rock and roll…

Arena, the biggest highlight of our conference.

But when we say our Arena judges take no shit, we really mean it.

Despite the strict judging panel, Easy Ship impressed and emerged the biggest winner at Tech in Asia Singapore 2015, taking gold at Arena and walking away with US$15,000. Congratulations! Read about them here.

Startup-Investor Speed Dating, another popular segment of our conference.

9gag’s Ray Chan was the celebrity at Tech in Asia Singapore 2015. You’ll know what we mean when you scroll through the #tiasg2015 twitter feed – many mentions about him!

SoftLayer’s booth generated a lot of buzz with their server challenge, which gives conference attendees the chance to walk away with a MacBook. We wonder who was the lucky one!

Tech in Asia’s first-ever Night Crawl, where the post-conference networking began.

Great infographic by Sonar Platform that neatly summarized how “social” our conference was.

Tech in Asia Singapore 2015 sure went well with this attendee from Hong Kong. Thanks for coming and see you again next year!

Huge thanks also to our sponsors and partners for making Tech in Asia Singapore 2015 happen:
