Synopsis

Venture capital has been integral in propelling companies such as Google, Facebook and Alibaba into the large multi-national organisations we see today. While the results of a venture capital investment may not be immediately apparent, much market research and many backend discussions are conducted to assess the long-term business potential of a certain company and industry. Closer to home, Razer Inc., Grab, SEA and Go-jek are familiar start-up brands that first received seed funding via venture capitalists.

Discover+: Venture Capital provides students with the opportunity to speak to experienced professionals from leading industry players such as Big Idea Ventures, Ficus VC, and 500 Startups! Through Discover+: Venture Capital, students can find out more about careers in the Venture Capital landscape, and learn how best to position themselves for careers in this exciting field.
