Golden Gate Ventures raises US$100m fund

The new fund is expected to have a first close before the end of this month and the final close by the end of 2018.

Bloomberg reports that Singapore’s Golden Gate Ventures is raising a US$100m third fund to continue investing in Southeast Asia’s burgeoning market for e-commerce, payments and mobile apps, according to a person familiar with the matter.

The new fund is expected to have a first close before the end of this month and the final close by the end of 2018. Golden Gate Ventures was one of the earliest VC firms to target Southeast Asia’s nascent technology sector. It has since launched two funds and invested in more than 30 companies across the region, including Carousell and Alodokter and Appota Corp.

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.
