About us
Deploy is a global intelligence network that combines human expertise with artificial intelligence to provide unparalleled insights into startup opportunities, especially in emerging markets and underserved geographies. Our innovative approach uses active industry professionals acting as unaffiliated venture scouts to source startups in their respective domains of expertise and allows them to quickly refer those startups for peer evaluation. Investors find conviction faster by tapping the intelligence, experience, and intuition of seasoned professionals before due diligence even begins. In the event that a startup receives investment, the originating scouts are rewarded with a percentage of the carried interest in that investment.

Continual Improvement and Effective Tools Enhance Job Performance - Jordan Kostelac from deploy. "When I was working in the warehouse I was constantly suggesting changes. Oh, we should do it like this. We should do it like this and then eventually just start making the tools myself with simple keyboard macros, right? We were using these old sorts of DOS-based systems and you could do the function keys and make a keyboard macro, but that would allow me to get through four screens in rapid succession. That eventually evolved into me developing what we'd now call full-scale apps. And at the time this was MS Access. So no one would call it an app by today's standards, but it was creating these effective set of tools, oftentimes without permission that allowed me to be better at my job, and then when other people started adopting them, they got better at their jobs, and the rising tide lifted all ships. So, doing that process of discovery, it helped resolve that question of what I wanted to be when I grew up." - Jordan Kostelac Main Site: https://lnkd.in/gU_wfURV Full YouTube Video: https://lnkd.in/gsuMTUHH Newsletter Signup: https://lnkd.in/gWedr5RK LinkedIn Page: https://lnkd.in/dH-rpqXf #careeradvice #careerjourney #deploy #proptech #startups

🎉 Happy birthday to us! 🎂 deploy. actually celebrates our founding in February but our co-founders Sophiya Chiang (May 26) and Jordan Kostelac (May 27) were born just a day apart! (Give or take a decade or two!) We're running all over the globe right now in an effort to expand our reach so it might be hard to extend wishes in person, but the best gift we can ask of all of you in to give our page a like and help spread the word about how we are changing the way great startups get funded! Many thanks from Team Deploy!

We couldn't agree more! "✨ Traditional deal-sourcing methods are inefficient and biased, investors should be turning to AI to source and screen deals." At deploy. we have combined the best of the machine efficiency of #AI with the kind of insights only seasoned experts working close to the problems can have. That's deal flow; done better. That's deploy.
This morning 15 speakers and hosts took the stage to share unique ideas and insights covering practical tips and personal stories about HOW Asian Family Offices can navigate the winding journey to create scalable impact. Here are 5 high-level snippets: ✨ Family Offices need to think about doing more than just ESG screening in their portfolio ✨ Sustainability is core to profits therefore, FO's need to take a multi asset approach to integrate sustainability into decision-making. ✨ Collaboration, not competition, is key to solving complex problems. ✨ There are serious limitations to traditional investment strategies thus a real need has emerged for new asset classes to address societal problems. ✨ Traditional deal-sourcing methods are inefficient and biased, investors should be turning to AI to source and screen deals.

This. This is why we do what we do. Fundraising shouldn't be easy, but it can be easier. Innovators like Greg, Martin, and Sean need room to focus on product, and access to their user target customers for honest, actionable feedback. deploy. combines that with a channel to access investors who see the same expert insights, so that all parties can move faster and build the future together. Congratulations to the entire Trace 3D team for your oversubscribed funding round! And a huge thanks for your trust in our team to allow us to play small part in all of it. #venturecapital #earlystage #investing

What a privilege it is to have our co-founder Jordan get to share his career journey and how that inspired us to build Deploy on our favorite Asia business podcast Analyse Asia! Special thanks to Bernard Leong for all the hard work he does to cultivate the Asian & Southeast Asian startup ecosystem including his exciting new venture Dorje AI which is sure to provide much needed disruption in the enterprise ERP space!
Fresh out of the studio, Jordan Kostelac, CEO and co-founder of deploy., dives into the ever-evolving landscape of the real estate industry and the burgeoning proptech sector in 2024. Reflecting on his previous role as the Director of Technology at JLL Asia Pacific, Kostelac shares the key lessons learnt while leading various #Proptech initiatives and establishing the UrbanLab accelerator with Swire Properties and PingAn. He details his transition from JLL to founding Deploy, a startup that addresses the inefficiencies of deal sourcing and due diligence in the startup venture ecosystem starting from the PropTech sector. Last but not least, he shares what great would look like for Deploy moving forward. "I think the biggest learning that I had, and, by extension, JLL [Jones Lang LaSalle] in my last capacity was that it's not sufficient to take these companies and then just let them in the door. You can't hand one of your business clients the keys and expect them to drive. So, one of the first cohort companies in Urban Lab was a robotics company, and we created a revenue-sharing agreement with them any property that you get into through us, there's a revenue share. But the downstream incentives weren't sufficient enough. We didn't provide enough tools to people who were actually interacting with the properties to then want to actually be able to do it. Most of them didn't even know about it. That speaks to the size of an organization like that. when you sit up in an organization, you sometimes forget that you can't just speak something into existence. You need a ground game ..." - Jordan Kostelac Watch the full YouTube Video: https://lnkd.in/gsuMTUHH
