The Changing VC Landscape
summary
Southeast Asia moves from raw to repeatable: early-stage seed activity is growing into Series A and B pools, international players like Sequoia and Chinese and Japanese funds are deploying capital, and several firms have launched third funds as LPs diversify. Governments create sandboxes but also distort incentives; Indonesia issues a P2P license in Indonesia that changes lending models. Accelerator programs invest $100k per team, and super‑apps (GoJek, Grab) start to act as strategic acquirers rather than just competitors.
