Singapore VC funding drops to 12-month low $39.8m in April

Deal activity slows as only a handful of startups secure funding during month.

Singapore startups raised $39.8m in April 2026, the lowest funding generated in the past 12 months and a steep drop from $667m in March, according to compiled data from market intelligence platform Tracxn.

Based on Tracxn’s 12-month data, funding peaked at $2.2b in January 2026, followed by $1.7b in July 2025. 

Outside these months, activity largely ranged between about $100m and $500m, with most months clustering around the $200m to $300m range.

Top venture capital deals in April included Simple Chain’s funding round amounting to $15m, ZIG Ventures’ investments in Biobot Surgical at $7.8m, Accel’s $6m round for Atlas, and Golden Gate Venture’s $1.7m investment in Ortcloud.

Incubators active during the month included Betatron Venture Group’s $3.7m investment in CubeAsia.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
