What sets a great groundup leader apart from a good one? 🤔

A great groundup leader possesses both the skillsets 💪 and readiness to operate beyond their own groundup work, by taking action to foster collaboration within Singapore’s groundup community. 🙌

If this resonates with you, and you are a groundup leader (founders/co-founders/core team), who has been running your groundup and are committed to social causes through other means, the Groundbreakers Leadership Programme might just be what you need! 💥

Registration closes tomorrow, 23 October 2024. Interested applicants are still welcome to submit their forms or email us at hey@bagustogether.sg to ask for an extension.

Earlier this month, we held Intro to Partnerships: Establishing Foundations!

The workshop enabled participants to explore the possibilities within different networks and connections. Speaker Lee-Mey Goh (AmCham Singapore) led the participants in thinking about identifying and qualifying partners, widening their horizons on creative methods to approach different partners, including defining value propositions that their partners can resonate with. The session wrapped up with an open Q&A segment where participants could seek advice on their partnership strategies. 🤝

Thank you to all our wonderful participants for coming down to the session! We hope you have gained valuable insights on enhancing your partnership strategies. Our appreciation to talenTtrust and Lee-Mey for putting together such a fantastic workshop! 🤗
