Any Angel Investors here?

kenetix — Wed, 01 Feb 2017 03:04:16 +0800

Hi everyone. I've been a LYN member for a while but haven't been very active. I'm keen to know if there are any active angel investors in here who are looking to explore co-investment deals in early stage or startup companies.

Bit about myself, I'm Ken, founder of BEAM (http://beam.biz). We run a global platform for business communication/collaboration and work with (and invest in) many startups across the region. We also run a broad range of entrepreneurship/investment events (some with local governments). To date, our platform is home for thousands of startup companies across the SEA region and Japan.

I'd love to get in touch with anyone who is actively investing in startups/early stage companies to perhaps grab coffee and bounce some ideas across to see what sort of collaborations/coinvestments we could explore together.

Oh and I apologize in advance if I'm posting in the wrong forum. I'm still quite new to this whole space.

Can't use google search on LYN

kenetix — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 17:18:10 +0800

I hope I'm not reposting this or anything, but I can't seem to search for anything on Lowyat using the google search. It says the client does not have permission to use this feature.

Could it be an expiry of the registration?

Anyone here use Fiverr?

kenetix — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 03:57:34 +0800

Anyone here have any experience with Fiverr (fiverr.com)? Is it good? How did it fair in delivering traffic to your site?

I hear a few people talking about it on other forums, $5 for advertising isn't too bad imo. What do you think? Some feedback on your experience would really help.
