Biorithm, a startup based in Singapore was awarded a spot in the Top 20 finalists of Startup SG’s Slingshot Competition’s “COVID-19 Challenge: Creating the New Normal” sector. In addition, they made it to the Top 100 Finalists overall, representing one of the Top 20 innovative startups in the MedTech, HealthTech & BioTech sector.
The Slingshot competition is an annual startup competition powered by Startup SG and organized by Enterprise Singapore. This year was its fourth annual edition, and due to the pandemic, the finals at SFF x SWITCH 2020 (Singapore FinTech Festival x Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology) were held virtually to accommodate its very global participants.
This year, the competition was also global and as a result, highly competitive. Biorithm competed with over 7,500 other innovative and globally based startups to receive its place in the Top 20 of two widely sought-out challenge sectors. The Top 100 start-ups were invited for a week of mentorship and pitch clinics, called Gear-Up, which prepared them for the three-day virtual finals.

The Managing Partner of Magnetic Alliance Capital sees the nation’s richest investment opportunities hiding in plain sight: inside thousands of unglamorous, profitable, but operationally sluggish mid-market businesses. Speaking on Wholesale Investor’s […]
The asset class where the market has no vote
Litigation funding returns are decided in a courtroom, not a cycle. Knightsbridge’s Head of Capital is careful to call that a different risk rather than a lower one, and his answer to it is spread, not concentration. Most alternative assets still answer to something. Property answers to rates. Private credit answers to defaults. Even the […]
The listing fee vendors pay whether the house sells or not
Australia’s property portals collect more than $2 billion a year while national listings sit flat. An Australian-built AI platform is targeting the economics, not just the interface. An Australian vendor listing a home pays a vendor-paid advertising fee on top of agency commission. Rama Dwarapudi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of RealSearch, puts a typical […]
