Trailblazers - Grand Finals Judges

The Grand Finals of the 12th Lee Kuan Yew Global Business Plan Competition represent the culmination of an intense multi-stage journey. The top startups, having first emerged victorious in their respective Category Finals, will present their most groundbreaking innovations to a distinguished panel of judges, investors, and industry leaders. Their pitches showcase bold solutions to global challenges and set the stage for one of the most prestigious moments in the competition: the awarding of the Chancellor’s Cup for Beta Innovation Prize and the Chancellor’s Cup for Infinity Impact Prize. More than a contest, the Grand Finals are a celebration of entrepreneurial excellence, transformative ideas, and the vision of ventures poised to make a lasting global impact.
