Back in May, we were one of 19 ventures shortlisted from applicants all over Asia to attend the Youth Social Entrepreneurship Initiative (YSEI) Fellowship in KL. The 5-day workshop paired entrepreneurs with mentors and industry experts who grilled the participants on their ideas and business plans.
Entrepreneurs then get to pitch their ideas for seed / start-up financing which offered up to USD 60,000 over 1.5 years, alongside other benefits such as mentorship, knowledge and networks.
Today, we received an e-mail from YSEI announcing the results. Ten ventures were chosen for the 1st round of seed financing which offered USD 5,000 plus 6 months of mentorship. Some of the ventures were from Thailand, Pakistan, India and Philippines.
How did Elevyn do? We'll leave it to you to find out :-)
