Katalon was selected into the Endeavor network at the 19th Virtual International Selection Panel (VISP) held September 20-23, 2021. Congratulation to Vu Lam and Alex (Uy) Tran from Katalon!
Endeavor selected 17 entrepreneurs leading nine companies at the 19th Virtual International Selection Panel (vISP) held September 20-23, 2021. Endeavor now supports 2,225 entrepreneurs leading 1,384 companies in nearly 40 markets around the world.
The vISP was presented by General Atlantic, with additional support from AXA, Bain, Cooley, EY, HSBC, Silicon Valley Bank, and Zoom.
The ISP is the culmination of a rigorous multi-step selection process to identify high-impact entrepreneurs who demonstrate the potential to leverage Endeavor’s resources and mentorship to create large-scale wealth and jobs and are committed to reinvesting their time and money in their local entrepreneurship ecosystems to help others take off.
During the vISP panelists utilized Zoom breakout rooms to interview a small group of high-caliber entrepreneur candidates leading four companies about their businesses. In “deliberation rooms” — private Zoom meetings with only Endeavor staff and panelists — panelists evaluated the entrepreneurs on their potential for high-impact growth, discussed which candidates should be selected to become Endeavor Entrepreneurs, then voted unanimously to select the newest Endeavor Entrepreneurs.
Panelists at the ISP included: Abdulla Elyas, Co-Founder, Careem (Endeavor Entrepreneur); Alvin Sariaatmadja, President Director, Emtek (Endeavor Indonesia Board Member); Chris Misner, Advisor & Investor, C2 Growth (Endeavor Global Ambassador); Daniel Vogel, Co-founder & CEO, Bitso (Endeavor Entrepreneur); David Wells, Fmr. CFO, Netflix; The Edge, U2 (Endeavor Ireland Board Chair); Eric Santos, Founder & CEO, RD Station (Endeavor Entrepreneur, Endeavor Brazil Board Member); Geoffrey Godding, Partner, EY; Joanna Rees, Managing Partner, West (Endeavor Global Ambassador); Kent Thiry, Executive Chairman, and Former CEO, DaVita (Endeavor Colorado Board Member); Noah Breslow, Operator in Residence, Bain Capital Ventures; Oliver Rippel, Co-Founder & Partner, Asia Partners; Pandu Sjahrir, Managing Partner, Indies Capital Partners (Endeavor Indonesia Board Member); Roshini Bakshi, Managing Director, Everstone Capital Advisors (Endeavor Global Ambassador); Samantha Skey, CEO, SHE Media, Penske Media Corp.; Steve Kessel, Fmr. Senior Vice President, Amazon; Susan Anderson, CEO, Cannonball Capital Inc. (Endeavor Canada Board Chair); Valeria Alberola, CEO, ZOMALAB (Endeavor Colorado Board Member).
As part of Endeavor’s network, the newly selected entrepreneurs will gain access to comprehensive, strategic, global support services, including introductions to local and international business mentors, investors, and volunteers from Fortune 500 consulting firms who will help them address key needs.
