About Us
NUSX is where NUS talent, research and ideas meet the people, pathways and resources that can take them further. That includes founder development, research translation, venture creation, industry partnerships and access to capital and global networks. The parts of NUSX do different things, but we share a common ambition: help more NUS talent, research and ideas find a path to use and scale. NUSX was known as NUS Enterprise until September 2026.
The Role
NUSX is the Innovation & Entrepreneurial arm of the National University of Singapore (NUS). The Ecosystem Building team operates one of the most extensive startup ecosystems in the world, leveraging NUS' research and innovation capabilities together with market connectivity through our regional and global nodes.
The CyberSG Talent, Innovation and Growth (TIG) Collaboration Centre, established in collaboration with the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA), brings together industry, academia, cybersecurity professionals, investors and government stakeholders to strengthen Singapore's cybersecurity ecosystem.
We are looking for an experienced Venture Manager / Senior Venture Manager to join our Innovation and Growth team. The role will focus on identifying and supporting promising cybersecurity ventures, helping them gain market traction, access customers and capital, and expand into international markets.
In this role, you will:
- Identify and build a pipeline of Singapore cybersecurity startups and SMEs, and assess their business, technology and growth potential.
- Support ventures in securing opportunities, including introductions to potential customers, pilots, PoCs, partnerships and other pathways to market.
- Drive growth efforts, including internationalisation, identifying suitable overseas markets and opportunities and helping Singapore cybersecurity ventures gain exposure to customers, partners, investors and ecosystem networks abroad.
- Curate and support overseas market access, including industry missions, major cybersecurity conferences and exhibitions, investor engagements and targeted business-matching opportunities.
- Support ventures across different stages of development, including companies graduating from CyberBoost and other TIG programmes, providing continuity beyond individual programmes and helping high-potential companies progress towards their next commercial or funding milestones.
- Build strong relationships with CISOs, enterprises, Singgov agencies and other end-users to better understand market needs and create opportunities for promising cybersecurity solutions.
- Work with investors, venture capital firms and the wider NUSX ecosystem to improve ventures' access to suitable sources of capital.
- Contribute to the design and delivery of venture-development initiatives, including CyberBoost where relevant, while ensuring that programmes remain driven by venture and market needs rather than programme delivery.
- Track the development and outcomes of supported ventures, including commercial traction, partnerships, funding, overseas expansion and other relevant growth indicators.
- Work collaboratively across the TIG Centre's Talent, Innovation and Growth functions, and with NUSX, CSA and external partners, to advance the Centre's broader mission of building a strong and sustainable cybersecurity ecosystem in Singapore.
