About The NEXEA VC Program
Early Stage Startup Investment Funding For Technology Startups in Southeast Asia
The NEXEA Early Stage Venture Capital (VC) Program is for technology startups that have revenue and are ready to grow further.
We focus on delivering not only capital but also the best-in-class support via our exclusive and top-tier mentors, experts, and partners.
Our track record includes companies that grew 3-16X year on year, with more than 50% of our companies raising follow-on funding or exiting.
What is Venture Capital (VC)?
A venture capitalist or VC is an investor who either provides capital to startup ventures or supports small companies that wish to expand but do not have access to equities markets. Venture capitalists are willing to invest in such companies because they can earn a massive return on their investments if these companies turn out to be successful.
Venture capitalists look for a strong management team, a large potential market and a unique product or service with a strong competitive advantage. They also look for opportunities in industries that they are familiar with, and the chance to own a large stake of the company so that they can influence its direction.
Venture capitalists also experience major losses when their picks fail, but these investors are typically wealthy enough that they can afford to take the risks associated with funding young, unproven companies that appear to have a great idea and a great management team.
