After two years of extensive lockdowns, online webinars, video calls, and very few opportunities to engage with the community in-person, we’re finally bringing you Echelon! APAC’s leading tech, startup, and investment Platform organised by e27, is returning this year with the goal of building stronger collaboration between ecosystem players.

The event is invite-only and aims to facilitate favourable business outcomes through meet-ups, discussions, and other activities that could help participants connect with and discover potential partners to move their business forward.
With a focus on sustainability and an eye to the future, together, we find out how you can apply principles of sustainability with the newest technologies in today’s business environment to take your business operations to the next level.
