Golden Gate Ventures raises US$100m fund

The new fund is expected to have a first close before the end of this month and the final close by the end of 2018.

Bloomberg reports that Singapore’s Golden Gate Ventures is raising a US$100m third fund to continue investing in Southeast Asia’s burgeoning market for e-commerce, payments and mobile apps, according to a person familiar with the matter.

The new fund is expected to have a first close before the end of this month and the final close by the end of 2018. Golden Gate Ventures was one of the earliest VC firms to target Southeast Asia’s nascent technology sector. It has since launched two funds and invested in more than 30 companies across the region, including Carousell and Alodokter and Appota Corp.

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.
