Investing in exit-focused B2B startups from Hong Kong and Singapore

Betatron invests in early-stage tech companies serving Asia’s largest industries: manufacturing, logistics, construction, finance, trade, communications and environmental technology.

 

Startups from Hong Kong and Singapore enjoy flourishing ecosystems, vibrant investor communities, strong government support, favorable tax incentives, access to multi-national corporate customers, and IPO-friendly stock markets. These factors improve their likelihood of exiting.

  • Exits in Asia are few and far between, but under the right circumstances they can and do happen. Betatron works with its founders to chart their path to exit, including identifying potential acquirers. This is how we achieve consistent, strong returns.

  • Betatron invests with the exit in mind. By working with ambitious founders who can chart a credible path to acquisition or IPO, Betatron delivers superior returns. The fund looks for companies operating or incorporated in either Singapore or Hong Kong, who are running B2B asset-light technology businesses disrupting large, traditional industries in Asia, including manufacturing, finance, construction, environmental technology, trade and healthcare. Writing first checks of up to US$2 million in seed to series A funding rounds, we can also write follow-on investments.

  • Most of Betatron’s portfolio companies are hiring, selling, and growing across multiple markets in Asia. You need a partner who has seen these challenges before to smooth the process.

  • As you grow, you’ll need more people to sell than just the founders. Betatron will help you build the team and processes require for successful cross border enterprise sales and negotiations.

  • As a founder, you need to know what works and doesn’t in your industry, so Betatron works hard to keep you informed. For example, we host events like Warehouse Logistics Day to bring together founders who can share what’s working and what is not in different markets.
