Southeast Asia’s Global Debut
In recent years, Southeast Asia has become a serious contender on the global startup and tech playing field, with headline-making mergers, acquisitions, SPAC (special purpose acquisition company) deals, and investments.

Grab’s SPAC listing, Fave’s acquisition by Pine Labs, the GoTo merger, and most recently, GIC’s acquisition of an additional stake in Bukalapak, are just a few prominent examples.
With the global community paying more attention to the region’s tech sector, there has never been a more valuable time to build connections with those on the ground.
