Securing adequate funding is an indispensable aspect for founders to turn their innovative ideas into profitable ventures. Nevertheless, there are persistent debates on whether fundraising should be a core competency of any startup founder. Unfortunately, despite being extremely important for many founders, many lack the expertise and connections to be efficient in their fundraising journey.

It is not just that fundraising is arduous, but it is also a veritable time sink that deflects founders from focusing on their core competencies such as product development or business growth. Founders spend months trying to establish connections with investors, or worse, resorting to prospecting potential investors on platforms like LinkedIn, Google, or Conference Agendas.

Let e27 help you in your fundraising journey

At e27, our mission is to empower founders with the necessary tools and resources to grow their companies. For the past several years, our TOP100 program has been our flagship program, and it has been immensely popular since its inception in 2014. The program is run annually at Echelon Asia Summit and aims to democratise fundraising for startup founders, giving them the opportunity to succeed based on their innovative products, exciting services, and kickass ideas.

We understand that fundraising is a continuous and long-term effort that cannot be condensed into just two days. As such, while our program does enable founders to condense months of investor outreach into 2 days, we have come to acknowledge that they need more than just a couple of days. This realisation led us on a six-month-long journey of customer development, where we aimed to discover the best way to connect startups with relevant investors and corporates year-round.

Our efforts have resulted in the creation of e27 Pro, a membership program that provides people with access to an Echelon experience on a year-round basis. This program provides valuable insights, networking platforms, and necessary tools for business growth through one of our most prominent features, e27 Connect, which connects startups with relevant investors and corporates throughout the year.

With e27 Pro, you can rest assured that you’ll have access to the tools and resources you need to succeed in today’s competitive business landscape. Curious about e27 Pro? Find out more here.
