Singapore Venture Capital & Private Equity Association Announces 4 Winners for Deals & Exits in 2017 at 9th Annual Awards
The Singapore Venture Capital and Private Equity Association commemorated its 26th Anniversary with awards recognizing venture capital and private equity firms who have made successful and significant investments and exits in 2017.
For the first 8 months of 2018, Southeast Asia saw $5.8 billion in investments made by Venture Capital, Private Equity, and Corporate Ventures. While by no means as significant as the capital deployed in 2017, the investment activity seen thus far is a healthy 56% increase over 2016. Venture capital has powered ahead with $3.2 billion surpassing the $2.7 billion for the whole of 2017.
” $5.8 billion of investments made by venture capital, private equity & corporate ventures in 2018 “
Dr Thomas Lanyi, Chairman of SVCA:
“In the face of increasing economic uncertainty and volatile trade conditions all over the world, the role of private equity and venture capital becomes even more vital. The Southeast Asian story for private equity and venture capital continues to captivate investors due to strong growth stories and business propositions. The SVCA Awards recognize these investors who have shrewdly sourced their portfolio companies and those who have added significant material value to their investees.”

- Fund Raised of the Year – Dymon Asia Capital (Singapore) Pte. Ltd.

Proceeds from the auction went to the Autism Resource Centre (Singapore), the parent charity of Pathlight School.
