Track record.

01 — Network School

Network School, Malaysia — April 2025 to today.

Ârc's permanent home, inside the Singapore-Johor Special Economic Zone.

The underlying infrastructure — the campus, the accommodation, the school itself — was already in place when we arrived. Ârc's work has been to activate economic activity on top of it. Since April 2025:

01
500+ events
Run as part of our programming.
02
Multiple accelerator cohorts
Completed, with more running continuously.
03
Active fund deployment
Into companies populating the zone — Fulgur, Curious, and Ârc Angel.
04
Billions of dollars
Of value created on and around the zone.

Activation is Ârc's contribution. The playbook we used — pop-up first, then permanent — is the same one we bring to every new partnership.

02 — Timeline
