Great Minds: Investing in Formidable Founders
The hardest part for a start-up is making something people want and establishing the product/ market fit. Now you’ve done that. Raising money is the second hardest part of starting a startup. Armed with fresh capital, both K2 VC and Openspace Ventures are optimistic about investing in Asia.

Ozi Amanat (Venture Capitalist at K2 VC) credits his investment success to meeting and betting on formidable founders. Hian Goh (Venture Capitalist at Openspace Ventures and Founder of Asian Food Channel) spends most of his time bringing out the best in entrepreneurs and fixing the Series A crunch. We ask the Great Minds “Why is the human side of things most important?” and “Who gets your money?”

Join in the conversation moderated by Arrif Ziaudeen (Founder/ CEO of Chope) who have successfully raised multiple rounds of funding including Series D of SGD 18 million in 2017.
