Innovation across the Indo-Pacific region has advanced at a highly diverse pace, which ranges from fast-growing ecosystems such as Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Vietnam, to the nascent sprouts of entrepreneurship in the small Pacific Islands, Laos, and Myanmar, which are yet to enjoy the same volume and type of resources.
This report provides an overview of the investment landscape across the Indo-Pacific region and builds on the analysis of over 1,300 deals tracked between 2016 and 2021. The analysis presents an overview of trends and key actors, and it abstains from claiming absolute comprehensiveness due to limited access to funding information, as well as the extremely decentralised structure of the region.
