In brief: JustCo, Trive Ventures launch joint incubator program

In a strategic partnership with JustCo, Trive Ventures has launched its first startup incubation program. It features a nine-month long project runway that targets early-stage Singaporean startups and will focus on providing support, resources, and mentorship for all participants through JustCo.

The Trive Labs program entitles qualified entrepreneurs complimentary hot-desking access at the JustCo Lab, housed at JustCo in Marina Square. As part of their JustCo membership, participating startups can gain immediate access to the co-working operator’s regional community of more than 17,000 members, composed of fellow startups, small and medium-sized enterprises, and Fortune 500 companies.

Startups will be accepted into Trive Labs if they have obtained the Singapore government’s Startup SG Founders Grant with Trive as an accredited mentor and secured over S$20,000 (US$14,700) in funding. They also need to have “defensible tech” and a “positive outlook for regional expansion.”

Co-working operator JustCo has also unveiled an app which will allow its tenants and other partners to access workspaces and other services more easily, while also facilitating collaboration between members.
