MAS, ESG team up to matchmake startups with regional investors
Singapore
TO boost regional funding into Singapore's startup scene, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Enterprise Singapore (ESG) have jointly played matchmaker between startups and regional investors in a deal-matching initiative known as "Deal Fridays".
Started in June this year, the 15 investor-startup sessions organised as at mid-October have provided over 200 startups - across early and growth stages - with access to more than 150 investors, including venture capitalists (VCs), corporate VCs, family offices and angel investors from the region, said MAS and ESG in a recent joint statement.
