"The mission was impeccably organised and ran extremely smoothly — it facilitated meetings with leading VC investors in each region, some of the most impressive startups and scaleups across a range of sectors, and created opportunities for serendipitous connection with a range of players in the ecosystem. We also got a fantastic taste of the local culture — via delicious and diverse food, and free time to explore the cities.”
"The mission helped me gain a deeper understanding of Indonesia, Singapore, and Vietnam. By meeting with individuals and companies in these markets, I was able to gain an understanding unavailable previously through my research online and via Zoom with local partners. The groups we met taught me how to establish myself in these markets, both for talent acquisition and for customer growth. I am excited by the opportunities that follow given the success of the mission for me."
"Thank you Haymarket HQ for an unforgettable experience and for orchestrating an incredibly insightful and enriching mission across Indonesia, Vietnam, and Singapore. We returned from our trip not just with a wealth of knowledge and new connections, but with a clear strategy on how to grow further in these markets. It is very hard to find time for a long trip, but it was one of the best business trips I had."
"I had the opportunity to attend the Tech Immersion Mission across Vietnam, Singapore and Indonesia in 2023. I found this immensely useful for our company growth plans, networking, events and our company learnt a lot from the valuable country insights. We expect the outcome of this Mission will help support our growth into SEA and reduce some of the typical start up issues that can occur when a company does not have a strong understanding of the various country ecosystems."
This is a 9-day intensive mission with pre- and post- mission components.
