Before I even launched First Followers Fellowship for aspiring women fund managers, I was involved in the working group of 2X Ignite to brainstorm and rightly design interventions for first-time fund managers and gender-lens funds. I am so happy to see how far this has come along.
[Asia Pacific Only] 2X Ignite
2X Ignite is launching an Asia-Pacific cohort. They aim to support 25 female-led and diverse fund managers through a 6-month program with mentorship from investment experts, hands-on project work, and networking opportunities to accelerate their path to the first close.
Applications are accepted until June 14th. Applicants from the following countries are targeted: Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia, Fiji, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Philippines, Samoa, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste, and Vietnam.
