+ No slowing down at Iterative, Special year-end events for folks based in Vietnam and Singapore
Hi there,
We're currently working on a special end-of-the-year newsletter, but until then, we want to keep you in the loop of the latest with Iterative.
If you're looking to get an investment before the year ends, or want to connect with like-minded founders at our in-person events, you're in luck. Scroll down below for more details!
Not Slowing Down
At a time when many investors are slowing down, we're ramping up and committed to reviewing as many applications as we can.
Apply to Iterative in the next 5 days to guarantee we'll review your application before the year ends.
In the last 3 years, Iterative has invested in and worked with 100+ companies and 200+ founders over 6 batches. Collectively they have raised over $178M and are worth over $1B.
We invest up to US $500K. There are no milestones to meet, no clawbacks and no program fees.

For Folks in Vietnam and Singapore
If you're based in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh) and Singapore, join us at our special year-end events and initiatives below!
In-Person Interviews
We're hosting in-person final interviews for the first time! We'll be hosting them in two locations - Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh) and Singapore.
We're excited about the chance to get to know founders better face-to-face and learn more about what you're working on. And instead of you coming to us, we'll come to you.
Here's how it works:
1) Apply – Submit your application by 4 December. Slots are limited, so the earlier you apply, the better your chance to secure a slot.
2) First Call – If your application passes our first round of reviews, you may be invited to a first call with our investments team.
3) In-Person Final Interview – If your application passes, you’ll be invited for a final interview with Hsu Ken Ooi. For Singapore and Vietnam based folks, you’ll have the option to select an in-person slot.
As mentioned, in-person interview slots are limited. Do apply early to improve your chances of securing a slot.
Questions You May Have
Is the in-person interview compulsory if I’m based in Vietnam or Singapore?
No, it's completely optional! It’s up to you to choose a virtual or in-person final interview.
I'm based in Vietnam or Singapore but the in-person interview dates don't work out for me. Can I book another date?
No. The only dates available for in-person final interviews are the ones indicated in the form.
I'm not based in Vietnam or Singapore, but I'd love to do the final interview in-person. Can I book an in-person interview slot if I’m willing to fly to Vietnam or Singapore?
The option to book an in-person interview slot is available only to Vietnam and Singapore based applicants. If you're based somewhere else, we recommend going through the normal process. We appreciate the enthusiasm and hope to expand to other countries in the future!
Will Iterative do in-person interviews in other countries?
We'd like to host in-person interviews in more Southeast Asian countries in the future! We love meeting founders and definitely want to meet as many as we can.
