New Founder/CEO/Entrepreneur - IFD Program Batch 2 (AUS)

Description

Reapra's IFD Program for aspiring Founders/CEO's is back in Australia for its next batch of applicants!

Are you based in Australia, and:

• An employee or graduating student who is seriously considering becoming an entrepreneur but do not know how to start; or
• A founder who is looking for a hard reset (start from scratch and not simply “pivoting” > no on-going business, team and investor commitments) and wanting to do entrepreneurship differently from the typical Venture Capital (VC) way of building ventures; and
• Very open to learning new ways of long-term problem solving while managing high levels of uncertainty, complexity and the vagueness

Then we may invest and help you build your new business as you could be part of our growing Founder community.

About Reapra

Reapra is not about trendy technologies or hypergrowth venture capital. Rather, Reapra is a founder nurturer and future industry builder based out of Singapore and Japan with a strategic focus on developing financially sustainable businesses over a much longer time period to benefit the next generation of our society. Reapra’s mission is to co-create new industries that have a positive impact on society, by integrating research and practice together. We do this through integrative, people-centric venture building - a new business creation process that connects the entrepreneurs’ intrinsic motivation and life missions to a promising field that solves complex long-term issues that very few dare to venture in.

In short, our IFD Program helps you become a next generation leader that sees success, social impact, and well-being in a different light, and dedicates their entrepreneurial journey to change the world.
