About

What is Startup Agile Group?

A regional network helping founders and teams combine startup thinking with new ways of working in the age of AI.

Startup Agile Community is a multi-country initiative spanning Singapore, Malaysia, India, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Philippines, Thailand Sri Lanka and Vietnam. We bring together startup founders, product builders, innovators, and investors who want to apply agile principles, AI capabilities, Human Skills and outcome-driven tools like OKRs in a practical, lightweight way.

Through online sessions, founder circles, and in-person meetups, we explore how to design experiments, measure what matters, collaborate across functions, and build products that actually solve real problems.

The community is free to join, volunteer-driven, and designed for honest conversations and continuous improvement.
