Imagine being handed complete control of a small business operation and told to “trust your instincts.” We recognize that one of the toughest things about growing a business is to be able to attract, cultivate and growth your bench strength, which is why we launch the MVP Program
This is designed to give individuals with the drive to run a small business the skills and experience needed to do so. This program sets management VPs on a course for success while helping Sum Capital Partners grow in line with our Core Values. Successful MVPs spend one to three years progressing through the three-stage program. Advancement is based on the balance of performance, skillset, and the availability of opportunities at existing companies and newly acquired businesses.
When evaluating candidates, character and attitude are more important than prior experience. If you have what it takes to be a small business CEO, we’ll help you develop the tools necessary to be effective.
This intensive 3-month program is designed to throw you into the deep end, providing hands-on exposure to real-world investment and business operations. As an intern at Sum Capital Partners, you’ll work directly with our leadership team in Singapore, gaining experience in investment analysis, deal execution, and operational strategy within our portfolio companies. Expect to tackle challenges across strategy, sales, finance, HR, and technology, developing sharp business acumen while making a tangible impact from day one.
This stage provides the Business Manager (BM) with the opportunity to work directly with our leadership team in Singapore. During this phase, the BM will be immersed in investment analysis, deal execution, and hands-on operational work with our portfolio companies, tackling key challenges in strategy, sales, finance, HR, and technology. The goal is to develop sharp business acumen while driving real impact within our investments.
In this stage, the BM transitions into a Senior Leadership role within one of our portfolio companies. Working closely with the CEO, the SL takes on direct operating responsibility, leading teams, executing growth strategies, and driving business performance. This is a critical phase where leadership, decision-making, and business transformation skills are tested and refined.
At this stage, the SL steps up as the CEO of a portfolio company, taking full ownership of its strategy, operations, and long-term growth. This is the final step in the program, where leaders are given the reins to run a business with the full backing of Sum Capital Partners, ensuring sustainable success while scaling the company’s impact in the market.
