ST Engineering invests $7.8m in cybersecurity firm Janus Technologies

It will hold a minority interest in the firm.

Singapore Technologies Engineering (ST Engineering) has made a series B investment of $7.8m in US-based cybersecurity firm Janus Technologies.

According to a press release, the investment will give ST Engineering a minority interest in the firm.

“This is the first investment by our Corporate Venture Capital unit in companies with cutting-edge technologies or breakthrough innovations,” said ST Engineering president and chief executive officer Vincent Chong.

ST Engineering has included cybersecurity, robotics, autonomous technology, and data analytics to the capabilities it will invest in for long-term growth.

"Technology start-ups, like Janus Technologies scouted by ST Engineering Ventures will be able to integrate into the Group’s ecosystems and leverage its established business networks and channels for broader business capabilities to compete globally. They will also be able to tap on the Group’s technological expertise," ST Engineering said.

The investment is not expected to affect company performance for the financial year.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
