Hello reader,
Happy 2022! I hope your year has been off to a good start 🥳.
It’s been a busy first week of January on my end as I get up to speed with work and try to keep up with my new year’s resolutions. We’ve hit the ground running here at Tech in Asia, kickstarting the engines after taking some time off for the year-end holidays, and it looks like Southeast Asia’s startups have gotten the same memo.
Over the past week, startups in Asia raised over US$2.4 billion in funding, and seven companies made it to our M&A list for the week – a pretty strong start to the new year.
I’m excited about what 2022 holds for us, but if this first week is any indication, we’re in for some exciting times ahead.
