About Event

Friday @ SQ Collective

Friday is our open co-working day. People come to work on their own projects, take breaks together, and usually stay through the afternoon. It's quiet, focused, and builder- and founder-led.

You can arrive anytime from 10AM. Most people show up after lunch and settle in before 1.30pm. Bring your laptop. Grab any open seat. Stay as long as you like.

At 1.30pm, we pause work briefly for a shared session called The Stage, then everyone goes back to working. This is how Fridays here work.

The Stage @ 1.30pm

Topic: Enterprise Deal Lessons from the Other Side: Data Protection, DPAs and the Procurement

Joshua Woo · Founder, Perfraction

Joshua is a technology, AI and privacy lawyer with experience across Singapore and Hong Kong. Before founding Perfraction, he led AI, cybersecurity and privacy legal across APAC at Goldman Sachs and practised at Mayer Brown and Dentons Rodyk. He contributed to MAS Project MindForge, holds CIPP/E and CIPP/A certifications, and his team won Most Innovative at the Singapore Academy of Law's Hackathon for a Better World 2026.

Joshua will unpack what enterprise buyers examine during data protection reviews, DPA negotiations and procurement, and how AI founders can reduce deal friction by treating privacy as part of the sale.

What the room should leave with: Learn how to make data protection a sales asset instead of a compliance chore.

After the session, we go back to work.
