About
Cocoon Capital is a Singapore-based early-stage venture capital firm focusing on digital companies across Southeast Asia. Typically we invest post a MVP (Minimum viable product), but where fine-tuning of the product and business model remains. With a stellar track record of its seasoned partners, Cocoon Capital has the experience to help you get your business off the ground.
We have a unique model. We select only 6 companies per year to ensure sufficient capacity to support our founders - a model we have followed for last 15 years. We engage with our start-ups like trusted advisors providing the founding teams additional resources with the objective to guide, counsel and help them develop new skills. To best support our start-ups, we surround ourselves with a range of partners, each experts in their field to support and guide businesses towards global best practices.
Note that we invest in the whole of South East Asia & India, however all companies must have their holding company in Singapore before we write the cheque. We primarily target B2B businesses with a preference for SaaS, ecommerce and fintech. We believe this verticals have the largest chance of success in the current market environment.

Wavemaker Partners
Wavemaker Partners is an early-stage venture capital firm dual headquartered in Los Angeles and Singapore. In Southeast Asia, Wavemaker focuses on enterprise and deep technology companies. We have invested in more than 80 companies in the region (80% in enterprise, 20% deep tech). In Los Angeles, we have a long history of technology investments across a number of categories. We usually start with small investments in early-stage companies, and work with these companies before participating (where appropriate) in larger follow-on fundraisings. We invest in a larger number of companies per fund than most VCs and believe this approach maximises returns to our investors. Wavemaker is the regional partner for Southern California and South East Asia for the Draper Venture Network (DVN), one of the world's leading VC collectives.
