Aspire Reverse Pitch - Deep Tech Edition

Welcome the our Monthly Aspire Reverse Pitch: Hear from the VCs, For Once

For interested startups, please register at: https://luma.com/xkw9j73w

​We're flipping the script. Instead of founders pitching investors, four investors with a Deep Tech thesis will pitch you. What they look for in a first check, what makes them lean in, what's an instant pass. Then you get to ask them your most pressing questions.

​This isn't a new format, but we're bringing it back and making it a monthly thing. Different VCs each time, same idea: cosy, curated, and actually interactive. You get real Q&A time, plus open networking with the investors and other founders in the ecosystem.

​Hosted by Aspire, the finance stack that helps global founders build fast and scale freely. Register in minutes and be fully operational in days—with no minimum balance, no borders, and nonstop support. Also introducing Aspire for Startup Program built for high-growth founders like yourself:

• ​Up to SG$2,000 cash bonus when you open an account

• ​Up to SG$635k in rewards from our ecosystem partners

• ​10% cashback on up to SG$10,000 AI spend/credits, in the first 3 months
