71 SG is a local accelerator that aims to help local start-ups to expand outside of Singapore.

Our mission is to empower entrepreneurs by linking them with the capital and connection that they need to succeed.

Programmes and mentorships are tailored according to the local scene to add more value. The company’s prerogative is to make sure that the start-ups only have to focus on their core business, while we handle the rest from partnerships to regulatory issues. 71 SG connects the world, one start-up at a time.
