We got the amazing opportunity to visit some local startups here in Singapore, accompanied by the Slush team and the volunteers. The companies we visited were:<\/span><\/p>\n

Shopback<\/span><\/i>: A loyalty and discovery platform for online retailers. Customers who use Shopback find and receive discounts easier.<\/span><\/p>\n

Glints<\/span><\/i>: A recruitment platform for companies to find the best talent on the market.<\/span><\/p>\n

99.co<\/span><\/i>: A firm focusing on making it easier to rent and sell property via an online platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

Xfers<\/span><\/i>: A financial technology firm with a vision to build a unified banking payment platform in Southeast Asia.<\/span><\/p>\n

We learnt a lot about the company cultures and how their day to day business looks like. In the end there was a interesting panel discussion. The panelists consisted of workers from the startups we visited, and they shared their backgrounds and insights in working in a startup versus corporation and gave some career advice.<\/span><\/p>\n
