Thirty thousand people at the event. A dozen of them matter to your raise.

Founders lose most of a conference wandering a crowded floor hoping to run into the right investor. Wingman does the finding before you arrive: who in the room fits your raise, what they look like, where they will be, and what to lead with. Then it drafts your follow-ups within 24 hours.

Before

The room, ranked

We work through the speaker, delegate and sponsor lists and shortlist the investors who fit your stage, sector and cheque size, with the reasoning for each name. Every target gets a dossier: fund thesis, recent deals, mutual connections, a current photo, and an opening angle.

During

Where to go next

A private brief on your phone: one card per investor, plus a running timeline of where your targets will be, built from panel slots, hosted sessions and booth duty. When you have a free half hour, it tells you where to spend it. A concierge line answers questions during event hours.

After

Follow-ups within 24 hours

A personalized follow-up draft for every conversation, a meeting funnel tracker, and your CRM kept current. Nothing is sent without your approval.

Built by investors, for founders raising now.

Wingman is operated by Expara, the Southeast Asian early-stage venture firm founded by Douglas Abrams. The pipeline was developed running Douglas's own investor meetings at conferences across Asia, and every engagement is overseen by the Expara team.

Start with a sample. No commitment.

If you are raising and attending SWITCH, ask for a sample package: a shortlist of investors at the event who match your raise, with a one-line reason for each, and one fully worked dossier so you can judge the depth for yourself. If it is useful, we run the full package for you at the event.

Public sources only

Dossiers are built from fund websites, deal announcements, public delegate lists, and professional profiles. Nothing scraped from private data.

Human-reviewed

Every dossier and every client-facing draft is reviewed before it reaches you. Your raise data stays confidential and is never shared across clients.
