Who are we? As the #kindestcommunity on the internet, these are the values, behaviors and traits that our community members embody.
As a new member (or old!), we encourage you to follow our values, to ensure the greatest experience for you and our entire community.
❤️ We stand for:
We are kind, compassionate and deeply care
We are welcoming to everyone
We are supportive and empower each other
We believe in collaboration over competitiveness
We provide insights and advice
We are authentic in our interactions – we follow through on our word
We help each other through difficult times
We listen, and not just to respond (we have two ears and one mouth, and we use them in that ratio)
We are learners
We give more than we take
We believe in giving back
We believe a rising tide floats all boats
We have fun!
💔 We don’t stand for:
People being competitive or judgemental
People being overly sales-y – this is a community, not an ads platform
People being selfish
People being negative: discouraging or tearing down fellow entrepreneurs
People discriminating based on factors like race, gender, age, or sexual orientation
People that are not here to learn
People that have poor ethics, morals or lack integrity
People that don’t also value some fun!
What is Launchpad?
Launchpad is a digital and IRL community group that powerfully propels members through their entrepreneurial journey. We are an inclusive community of women and men who lift each other up, support each other, and bring the value of networking and community to our businesses.
We started in Hong Kong and Singapore and have since expanded across Australia, Bali, and Kuala Lumpur.

How do I sign up?
You will need to choose between a monthly or annual membership payment plan. We recommend an annual membership so you can get a discount, but it’s totally up to you.
Then you will receive an email to set up your account on Mighty Networks – our super awesome, profesh and useful platform. It is a one-stop shop for connecting with members, sharing your wins and events, and finding experts. You can also find here the details of all our IRL events, Masterclasses, Power Hours and more.
