About this Event
The idea of pitching and partnering with corporates and governments could be daunting to most startups, but if executed well — could result in a win-win situation for all parties involved. Corporates and governments look to startups for innovation and agility, while a successful partnership with a corporate or government could mean the world of difference to a startup’s branding and runway. In this session, we talk to startups, corporates, and governments to find out the best practices and tips of a successful partnership.
This session is a part of a wider, 6-part series of webinars held over Zoom that Qualgro and IMDA will hosting together. Through our interactions with start-ups in the industry across different markets, we will launch a series of webinars that will cater to common start-up pain points or difficulties most start-ups will face. We’ve distilled some common pain points of start-ups and categorised them according to their various functional needs. Through this series of webinars, we hope to provide deeper and more tailored content that start-ups in this landscape really need.
