What do we invest in?
Startups in Southeast Asia that leverage technology and the internet to scale rapidly and disrupt existing industries – from e-commerce to payments, marketplaces to content portals, mobile apps to B2B, IoT to SaaS platforms.
How much do we invest?
We invest at the Seed, Series A, and Bridge rounds. For Southeast Asia, this is generally companies raising USD$250k to USD$5M. We like working with co-investors that add value and are open to both leading and following other investors.
