 Southeast Asian tech and startup platform, e27, announced the return of Echelon Singapore 2025 which is happening on the 10th and 11th of June 2025, at the Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre.
Now in its 11th year, the event expects to welcome over 8,000 participants, including entrepreneurs, investors, corporate leaders, and government enablers from across Southeast Asia and beyond.
The event will feature over 150 speakers across three content stages, with curated sessions led by both rising and established voices featuring speakers from Taiwan, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Bangladesh, and Indonesia.
Brand-backed and startup showcases with organisations like Prudence Foundation, PIER71, Plug and Play, SparkLabs, and Block71 will bring structured focus to verticals including disaster tech, maritime tech, generative AI, and ESG, corporate innovation, and inclusive digital transformation.
Echelon Singapore 2025 also features tech luminaries like Jeremy Tan, Mountbatten GE2025 candidate; Dr. Yaacob Ibrahim, former minister and now Professor and Advisor to the President at Singapore Institute of Technology; and Eli David Rokah, CEO of Startup Blink.
Other highlights include over 50 stage sessions, more than 200 exhibiting companies, curated 1-to-1 meetings via Echelon Connect, and 12 expert-led roundtable and workshop sessions where delegates can deep-dive into sectoral challenges and solutions in areas of artificial intelligence, fintech, digital infrastructure, social impact, climate tech, and regional resilience.
Echelon 2025 will also be the backdrop for three key Memoranda of Understandings (MOUs), signalling a deepened commitment to cross-sector and cross-border partnerships. e27 will formalise strategic partnerships with SparkLabs Taiwan, Chung Yuan Christian University, and raiSE.sg.
The MoUs aim to strengthen startup capacity through accelerator support, deepen cross-border academia-industry collaboration, and build structured support systems for the region’s impact startup ecosystem, especially in articulating the ‘Social’ dimension of ESG.
Mohan Belani, CEO and Co-Founder of e27 said, “Echelon has always been about more than just stage time and startup booths, it’s where real connections happen between founders, investors, and partners across the region’s innovation ecosystem. As Southeast Asia’s tech economy matures, the need for collaboration, trust, and shared action has never been greater.”
Echelon continues its support for early-stage innovation through the return of the flagship TOP100 programme. This regional discovery platform showcasing over 100 high-potential startups from more than 10 Asian markets, spanning industries from space tech to health tech. Ten standout startups will pitch live on the main stage to a regional audience of investors, media, and ecosystem enablers.
In addition to a strong Southeast Asian presence, this event will feature expanded participation from startup ecosystems in Taiwan, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh, spotlighting ecosystem development through delegation showcases, and dedicated roundtables.
