As Southeast Asia’s first student venture fund, we have taken it upon ourselves to help build up the region’s student startup ecosystem. Our mission is twofold:

1. Invest in great Student Ventures

2. Groom amazing Student VCs to keep doing the same.

As such, at Protégé Ventures, you have the choice to either apply for funding as a Student Founder, or for training as a Student VC. We leverage on industry leaders in the regional startup ecosystem as well as experts in entrepreneurial education to prepare students for real world success in venture capital and entrepreneurship.

This programme is managed by Singapore Management University's Institute of Innovation & Entrepreneurship.
