Onsophic is founded by Silicon Valley veterans with successful deployments in banking, insurance and HR consultancy.
Why BLOCK71?
“Onsophic initially joined BLOCK71 in San Francisco for early ASEAN market research and business development. After the move to Singapore in Q2 of 2019, BLOCK71 proved to be the ideal place to connect with the local startup ecosystem, potential corporate partners and future capital. Being part of the community helps with meeting like minded individuals, future talent and provides an understanding of the local culture and needs through numerous informational sessions. As a foreign startup it’s quite possibly one of the best first steps towards doing business in the region.”
