What we do
The Singapore Venture Capital & Private Equity Association (SVCA) was formed in 1992 under the patronage of the Economic Development Board to promote the development of the venture capital (VC) and private equity (PE) industry. From a humble start of two, our membership now exceeds one hundred and continues to grow in tandem with the industry’s development.
Why we do
Our Mission is to foster greater understanding of the importance of venture capital and private equity to the Singapore economy in support of entrepreneurship, innovation, and growth, and to represent the interests of our members in the broader VC and PE community.
We also look after the interests of our members, promote professional development, raise professional standards as well as facilitate collaboration among members.
Key Thrusts
As a not-for-profit organisation, the association strives to:
- Promote the professional development of the industry through awards, training, workshops and conferences
- Facilitate interaction and collaboration among its members through regular networking events
- Act as a platform for dialogue on regulatory and policy issues pertaining to VC and PE through data research, feedback and consultation with members and regulatory authorities
- Build linkages to centres of VC and PE activities in the region through active participation at regional and global VC & PE Initiatives
How we do
The Association also acts as a platform for both dialog and representation on regulatory and policy issues pertaining to VC and PE and assumes a leadership role on Southeast Asian VC and PE industry matters and activities.
