  • Market Research & Analysis: Conduct deep-dive research on industry trends, emerging technologies, and competitive landscapes to support venture building and inform investment decisions.
  • Deal Sourcing: Help identify and evaluate potential opportunities, particularly in industries aligned with venture-building efforts, through outreach and networking with founders, industry experts, and other investors.
  • Due Diligence: Support the investment team by performing due diligence on prospective investments, with a focus on evaluating the strength of teams, market opportunities, and scalability of business models.
  • Portfolio Support: Work closely with existing portfolio companies, providing operational and strategic assistance, helping them build essential internal functions, and preparing them for subsequent funding rounds.

  • Demonstrated ability to lead strategic initiatives or drive innovation within a corporate environment, particularly those focused on cutting-edge technologies, product commercialization, or new market entry.
  • Strong business acumen and understanding of the technology commercialization process, including go-to-market strategies, product development cycles, and scaling operations from early-stage innovation to market penetration.
  • For Research Backgrounds :
    Candidates should be researchers with promising intellectual property (IP) that shows high potential for commercialization. Exceptional researchers without existing IP, but with a well-defined vision for scouting high-impact technologies, will also be considered.
  • Ability to develop and articulate a clear commercialization roadmap for research, identifying applications and market opportunities for the technology.
  • Researchers are expected to submit a thesis exploration proposal to Xora, which, if aligned with Xora’s objectives, will be supported and developed into a viable venture.
