[RECAP] ANGIN goes to Echelon Asia Summit 2018

It’s conference season for the Asia Pacific’s startup and investor community – and Singapore happens to be the place to be. ANGIN team members Meredith Peng and Riaz Bhardwaj attended the Echelon Asia Summit 2018 in Singapore from June 28 – 29. Echelon is one of the region’s most hottest anticipated conferences, bringing together investors, startups, corporates, government, tech ecosystem players, and customers in one space. Simultaneously occuring was the TOP100 Startup pitch competition, where 150 handpicked startups from APAC battled it out on stage.

Aside from the various insights from talks, keynotes, and panels on Southeast Asia’s startup ecosystem, the ANGIN team enjoyed speaking to both startups and investors interested in the Indonesian market. We are excited to hear growing interest in Indonesia – startups who want to scale their solutions into Indonesia as well as investors who see potential in Indonesian startups. We are confident that ANGIN is well-positioned as an ecosystem player to become a natural partner in these efforts; through our research and consulting arm as well as harnessing the power of technology via Connector.ID, we believe that we can support this growing interest in the Indonesian market from major APAC players.

ANGIN is also pleased to have been invited to the MOIBA dinner, where startups and investors from around the region networked and gained meaningful connections over food and drink. We would like to thank the e27 and Echelon teams as well as MOIBA for the invitations and look forward to collaboration and mutual partnership in the future.
