Founders and operators in Southeast Asia aren’t just launching and running their own startups - they’re also investing in the startup ecosystem as angel investors.
Angel investors are increasingly becoming an available source of capital for early-stage startups thanks to the differentiated value they bring–access to their own strategic networks, deep operational knowledge, and practical hiring advice.
Shao-Ning is a founder, operator, startup adviser, and angel investor. She was previously the co-founder of JobsCentral and exited the company to CareerBuilder in 2011.Â
AngelCentral started as a community in 2017 to facilitate angel investments in Singapore. The community grew rapidly to almost 280 strong within ten months and has helped raise over S$20M since 2016. Seeing the enthusiasm and support from the community, Shao-Ning together with Teck Moh and Der Shing, decided to incorporate and provide deeper angel training and investment support, with the key mandate to bridge good angels with good startups in Southeast Asia.
Jasmine was formerly leading investment operations at 500 Southeast Asia and now leads early stage VC partnerships at Stripe.
Stripe powers businesses of every size—from new startups to public companies—to accept payments and manage their businesses online. High-growth startups like Grab, Carousell, and FashionValet trust Stripe to help increase their revenues, reach new customers, and decrease time to market.
What are angel investors and how do they evaluate and structure deals? How do founders choose and conduct diligence on angel investors? How do I get started on becoming an angel investor? Shao-Ning draws on her expertise and experience being a founder, operator, startup adviser, and angel investor to provide deep and unique insights in answering these questions, and more.
