NUS Enterprise launches co-investment deals to boost deep-tech funding

It partnered with SG Growth Capital and Lotus One Investment.

NUS Enterprise, the entrepreneurial arm of the National University of Singapore (NUS), has launched a co-investment deal with SG Growth Capital and Lotus One Investment to boost deep-tech funding.

Under the deal, NUS Enterprise will see SG Growth Capital match its investments in selected venture funds and deep-tech start-ups under the new framework. In parallel is its $20m agreement with Lotus One that will jointly finance NUS spin-offs and VC funds.

Proceeds from both partnerships will be reinvested to expand NUS Enterprise’s innovation and entrepreneurship programmes.

The initiatives complement the $150m NUS VC Programme launched in July 2025.

Meanwhile, NUS Enterprise also announced a $2m pilot collaboration with Stanford University, made possible through a donation from the Khetan Foundation. The NUS-Stanford Khetan Foundation Launch Pad will give students from the NUS College of Design and Engineering hands-on experience in international teams, co-creating and prototyping solutions to real-world industry challenges.

Guided by faculty from both universities, students will collaborate with partners such as Meta and Venture Corporation, gaining practical exposure while sharpening cross-border innovation skills.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
