IDEAS ignite change, but it's people who fuel that transformation. This belief drives 917Ventures, one of the largest venture builders in Southeast Asia. It knows lasting success isn't just about metrics — it's about nurturing talent, sparking creativity and building a culture where innovation flourishes. This dedication is apparent in its track record: it has carefully evaluated over 900 ideas, launched 29 ventures and developed a robust portfolio of 13 companies.

My conversation with Rase Eustaquio, head of People at 917Ventures, highlighted their emphasis on employee development, a culture of growth and their comprehensive approach to talent management.
