They pursue financial returns while simultaneously facilitating collaboration between corporates and growing Asian startups to create greater value. The firm believes in leveraging their ground presence in these markets to identify emerging sector trends and capture growth opportunities that have changed significantly in the past 5 years and will likely accelerate further.

  • Dual focus on financial returns AND facilitating corporate-startup collaboration through open innovation partnerships
  • Multi-country team with diverse backgrounds conducting fund management across multiple Asian markets
