Meet Singapore's cryptocurrency czars

Their combined token sales proceeds hit US$381.42m in 2017.

Singapore Business Review rounded up the biggest initial coin offering (ICOs) raised in Singapore last 2017. Based on our compiled list, these major deals hit a whopping US$381.42m in total proceeds, with average funding around US$25.43m as businesses increasingly shun traditional funding methods in favour of token sales.

For our April-May 2018 issue, get to know the people behind these successful ICOs.

Most of the people in the list are former bankers seeking to disrupt the fintech space but one is a doctor whilst another is a former magazine publisher. What do they have in common? They ditched their hefty paying jobs to venture into the world of cryptocurrency and are now worth millions.

We’ve rounded up the most promising cryptocurrency-backed startups, and give you a glimpse into the lives of these cryptocurrency kings.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
