Ep.23 An intimate guide to starting and running your own business-
Kate from Perk by Kate

This week, we bring you our first podcast from Singapore. We speak to Kate, founder of Perk by Kate, a lingerie brand launched in 2014. Perk by Kate started as an online business (and yes, you will be able to purchase her beautiful designs for shipping to whereever you are), but in 2019 also established its studio in a beautiful shophouse space. The physical space allows for more intimate interactions with their customers and here they also hold popups with other brands. Kate shares with us her experience of starting her business from scratch, her views of what's important in running a business and what sets Perk by Kate apart.

A Necessary Network Effect

Female consumer brands are rising in popularity, so it’s only right for the number of female founders to follow suit. This much-welcomed trend will only pick up pace over the next few years, as the market size is estimated to be worth US$50 billion by 2025. In 2019, there was just over $100 million in venture capital funding for startups founded by women.
