Asian Founders
We’re committed to empowering Asian founders, connecting ideas and cultivating growth in the community.
In 2023, we introduced our first Asian Founder Meetups series, which we’ll be continuing in 2024. These sessions are designed to provide resources and support aspiring and established Asian entrepreneurs on their journey to success.
The benefits:
- Connecting Asian entrepreneurs – these meetups provide a safe space for networking, knowledge sharing and mentorship opportunities
- Inclusive community – we’re dedicated to promoting and fostering diversity, fairness and inclusion. These meetups are also open to allies and those supporting diverse founders, to help create a community passionate about equity in entrepreneurship
- Expert insights – each meetup will feature expert speakers, successful Asian entrepreneurs, and industry leaders sharing their insights and experiences to inspire and guide attendees
- Networking opportunities – Attendees will have the chance to network with like-minded individuals and potential collaborators. We’ll also provide access to valuable resources for their businesses, including mentorship, coaching and specialist content delivered by our partners
- Ecosystem expertise – we and our partners have a wealth of knowledge and expertise covering much of the UK’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. We’ll use this to support attendees on their business journeys.
