Introducing Humble Bundle: built by and for Asia’s tech players

Here at Tech in Asia, we always ask ourselves: How can we do more to empower and continue serving Asia’s tech and startup community? We’ve celebrated innovation with launches like Glasswall and given startups their chance to shine via the pitch battles at our Tech in Asia Conferences. Now, we’re taking another leap forward with Humble Bundle.

The concept behind Humble Bundle?
Humble Bundle is a dedicated listings page with a clear purpose:

  • It provides startups with a platform to showcase their offerings for free and helps professionals discover cost-efficient tools to optimize their processes.
  • It focuses on empowering Asian startups by connecting them with necessary resources and providing visibility.

Humble Bundle ties in with Tech in Asia’s mission: to build and serve the technology ecosystem by bridging the information and connection gap.

What does this mean for you?
For startups and founders, the platform is where you can stand shoulder to shoulder with other groundbreaking Asian companies. For VCs, it’s a seamless way to showcase your regional portfolio companies, helping them gain the traction they deserve.

Lastly, for professionals and businesses across Asia, Humble Bundle is a curated space where you can discover affordable, effective tools tailored to local markets that can help you streamline operations and spark innovation.

Why is this important?
The Asian startup ecosystem is thriving, with countries like India and Southeast Asia seeing significant developments in VC investments. In India, VC funding surged to US$16.8 billion across 888 deals from January to November 2024. This marks a 14.1% rise in value and a 21.8% increase in deal volume compared to the previous year. This growth highlights investor confidence in India’s promising startups.

In Southeast Asia, despite a challenging funding landscape, the region remains an emerging venture market. In the first nine months of 2024, [Southeast Asia raised US$2.8 billion across 352 deals. Fintech continued to lead regional startup funding, contributing US$1.7 billion or 36.8% of the total funding value.

By creating Humble Bundle, we aim to further fuel this growth, highlighting the region’s innovative spirit and connecting startups and the tech ecosystem with the resources they need to succeed.

So, are you ready to join us?
Whether you’re a founder with a game-changing idea tailored for Asian markets or a professional eager to leverage tools bespoke to the region, Humble Bundle is your gateway to success in the local tech ecosystem. To find out more about how you can list your startup or discover innovative solutions, visit Humble Bundle today.
