Investment Terms

Our flagship startup accelerator is backed by Accelerating Asia Ventures Pte Ltd, a Venture Capital Fund. Through our Fund, we invest in the high-growth, pre-Series A startups we accelerate from across the region.

We use flexible investment terms to ensure that startups get an appropriate valuation to their stage and traction. We invest in startups using SAFE notes which saves time and expenses and prevents friction around valuation negotiations.

How is the investment structured?
The investment is structured through a post-money SAFE note. The SAFE note has certain special rights for Accelerating Asia, including the right to make a follow-on investment as well as follow-on rights into your future rounds.

We write an initial check of US$100,000 to all eligible startups in the Accelerating Asia program, then make an additional investment of up to US$150,000 into top performing startups.

How much does Accelerating Asia Ventures invest?

Accelerating Asia invests up to US$250,000 in eligible startups in the flagship program.
