Tyro.VC is the first event of its kind, a competition in the form of a reality show where bright young people, we called them Tyros, who want to enter the venture capital industry, vie for the title of “The Tyro”. The participants will be coached by 5 leading VC firms in Singapore and get first-hand, real-life instruction and experience in the workings of venture capital. 

This will be a 3-month competition from late-Oct 2014 to mid-Jan 2015, to discover budding investment associates and in parallel good early stage young innovation-driven start-ups, and showcasing the behind-the-scenes world of tech investing, recorded and shared on YouTube.
