The recent Masterclass#20 event on 12-13 May was an absolute game-changer! From the vibrant welcome dinner that kicked off the event to the exhilarating workshop day, it was an experience that left attendees buzzing with inspiration and connection.
Welcome Dinner
Get ready for some serious #throwback vibes! The Masterclass kicked off with an electric welcome dinner on the evening of 12 May. Founders and venture capital guests came together to mingle, share stories, and ignite connections that will shape the future of Southeast Asia’s tech landscape. The energy in the room was absolutely electric, setting the stage for an epic day ahead!
Workshop Day
On 13 May, we dived headfirst into a jam-packed day of mind-blowing workshops. Oscar Jessionek, our delightful moderator, set the stage with an inspiring opening speech. He reminded us all about the power of sharing our struggles and the incredible value of coming together as a community. With SEA Founders’ core values of Autonomy, Authenticity, Accountability, and Openness in mind, we were ready to learn, grow, and conquer!
But wait, it gets even better! Our special guest speaker, Esther Nguyen, the unstoppable Founder and CEO of POPS Worldwide, took the stage. Esther shared her invaluable insights, experiences, and success strategies, leaving us fired up and ready to take our ventures to the next level.
Breakout Sessions
Things got real intense during the breakout sessions! We split into two groups to tackle the thrilling topics of “AI – Optimizing Team Efficiency” and “B2B – Go-to-Market Strategies.” The discussions were off the charts, with brilliant minds colliding, sparks flying, and ideas exploding like fireworks! After two mind-bending hours, each group showcased their mind-blowing insights and recommendations to the whole gang. Talk about leveling up!
Breakout Sessions
As the afternoon sun dipped low, we gathered for a moment of reflection. The buzz in the room was electric as founders openly shared their thoughts, highlighted key takeaways, and brainstormed ways to make SEA Founders an even stronger and more inclusive community. We laughed, we bonded, and we left no stone unturned in our quest to create the ultimate support system for tech founders in Southeast Asia.
