Hey Kat, Thanks for answering our questions. I was wondering what is the expected next 'round' of investment after successfully finishing the program. Could one join the usual YC program or should he raise a larger amount of money

You can't seriously compare the size of Singapore and the U.S. Foreigners buy London/NYC/SF because the price was inflated in the first place( its really hard to build stuff in these regulated cities)

Succintly, government-sponsored VCs have a better performance until they get so much money they start to underperform. Still, in the U.S only 4.53% of enterprises get GVC(p.20). http://www.nber.org/papers/w16521.pdf

That's also a move towards transparency, a great tool to control and limit government. I'm sure there'll still be classified programs in the future, but I'd urge people to go beyond "they're evil" and see
