Be A Catalyst


“Catalysts” shall be selected from the local Singapore business community who have expertise working with emerging technology companies. The “Catalysts” will be volunteers and will be involved in one or at most two Projects and will act as a volunteer member of i-Teams to develop a go-to-market scheme for his/her particular project. The Catalyst will be supported by the Director and will be invited to all the Centre’s networking events. The Catalyst will not be involved as an investor or manager of an eventual company (however, if the Catalyst wants to become an investor or manager, then he/she must step down from the Catalyst role and negotiate that new position at arm’s length).
See Volunteer Guidelines for Catalyst Program.


The Centre will also establish “Collaborating Catalysts”.  They are experts in the Boston entrepreneurial community (they may be Boston-based venture investors or successful entrepreneurs) who can provide expert experiences to several projects; provide guidance to the PI and Catalyst, and provide linkages to the large investment community in the United States. In view of their geographical distance, the Collaborating Catalyst will communicate with the rest of the project team mostly via video conference.
