We recently attended the Global Knowledge Hub Forum (GKHF), hosted by Leave a Nest Singapore Pte. Ltd., a platform built to turn cutting-edge knowledge into meaningful business opportunities.

Singapore is uniquely positioned as a global headquarters for multinational corporations, government agencies, and fast-growing startups. That makes it not just a business hub—but a crossroads for innovation, research, and collaboration. GKHF harnesses this strength to bring together MNCs, SMEs, academia, and government stakeholders to connect, share, and co-create.

From 1-on-1 matchmaking sessions to special presentations and startup pitches, every part of GKHF was designed to foster real conversations and actionable next steps.

From Science to Shelf: Scaling Purpose-Driven Innovation

One of the highlights for Louken was hosting a panel discussion titled “From Science to Shelf: Investing and Scaling Purpose-Driven Brands in the Well-Being Economy”.

Moderated by our Chief Strategy Officer, Noah Lee, the session brought together both founders and investors to discuss what it really takes to bring science-led products to market. Among them was one of our venture brand founders, who spoke passionately about the role of functional food in supporting better health outcomes—and how deeptech innovation can be made accessible and commercially viable.

We’re keeping the brand under wraps for now, but it was a proud moment to see vision and values come to life on stage.

A Platform for Cross-Border Collaboration

Events like GKHF reinforce the power of ecosystem collaboration. It’s not just about showcasing innovation—it’s about enabling real partnerships between those who create, those who fund, and those who scale.

Thank you to Leave a Nest Singapore for bringing together such a thoughtful and energising community. We’re excited for the partnerships sparked here, and for the impact to come.
