Startup Grind Singapore is excited to welcome back Adrien Barthel, Co-Founder and Chief Growth Officer of Sleek, for an in-depth fireside chat on the entrepreneurial journey behind one of the region’s most successful startups. We first spoke with Adrien virtually in 2021 during the pandemic, and since then, Sleek has experienced significant growth and milestones in addition to celebrating their seventh anniversary.

In this session, Adrien will share how Sleek grew from a homegrown startup in Singapore to an international company that now operates across multiple markets, including Hong Kong, Australia, and the UK. Over the past seven years, Sleek has transformed the way businesses handle corporate governance, accounting, and tax, leveraging technology to streamline these essential services. Adrien will discuss the challenges of scaling Sleek’s operations globally, how they navigated different regulatory environments, and what it took to achieve profitability in their home market.

Recently, Sleek made headlines with its successful corporate debt financing round, raising $5 million to fuel further expansion. Adrien will dive into how this latest funding, structured as corporate debt rather than equity, aligns with Sleek’s long-term growth strategy, and what other founders can learn about innovative fundraising methods in today’s ecosystem.

Whether you're a founder scaling your own business, exploring new markets, or interested in learning the art of sustainable growth, this fireside chat will be packed with insights and practical advice.
