Thesis
Asia Partners is a Singapore-based growth equity firm established in 2018, focusing on technology and technology-enabled companies across Southeast Asia. The firm aims to bridge the 'Series C/D Gap' by providing growth capital to companies that have demonstrated product-market fit and are poised for significant scaling. Their investment strategy is thesis-driven, focusing on identifying early sector leaders and supporting their regional expansion and technology upgrades. They target the lower middle market with typical investments ranging from $20 million to $100 million, often taking significant minority stakes of 10-20%. They are particularly interested in founder-led businesses with validated technology and strong customer value propositions. While the firm's primary focus is on growth equity, it also engages in later-stage venture capital and private equity/buyout activities. The firm's geographic scope encompasses Southeast Asia, including key markets such as Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. Asia Partners also has a presence in Hong Kong. As of January 2024, Asia Partners has reached $1 billion in assets under management, including its debut fund, Asia Partners I LP, which closed at $384 million in March 2021, and its second fund, Asia Partners II LP, which closed at $474 million in January 2024.
