Well Grab is also considering secondary listing in Singapore, which may not be a bad thing if investors are concerned about the listing in US.
- FCY:
  But singapore valuation would not match up with the SPAC valuation

Other late-stage investors, includingprivate equity players, are taking note and writing large checks in the region, he said.\n“The next decade is going to be a very competitive decade for CEOs. You are going to have to scale from 5 to 5,000 much quicker, to be more competitive, (and for) more money,” Lauria said.\nSPACs are shell companiesset up to raise money through an initial public offering, with the sole purpose of merging with or acquiring an existing private company and taking it public.\nFundraising in SEA\nSoutheast Asia’s start-ups reportedly raiseda record $6 billion in the first three months of the year, including anover $2 billion funding roundby logistics and courier service company J&T Express. Last month, Singapore-based start-up Carro, which operates an online marketplace predominantly for pre-owned cars,snagged $360 million in fresh funds.\nThe more established names in the region are preparing to list in public markets. Ride-hailing giantGrab announced in April that it would go public through a SPAC merger valued at $39.6 billion, one of the largest ever blank-check deal. The newly merged Indonesian tech giant, GoTo Group, isalso planning to go public soon.\nLauria told CNBC that a number of Golden Gate’s portfolio companies have been approached by SPACs, and that many of them have said they are not yet ready to go public as being a private firm has its advantages.\n“For a lot of our companies, they see (going public) as something one, two, or three years away. So they’re not just automatically jumping on a SPAC,” Lauria said. “When they are ready to go public, whether that’s a SPAC or traditional IPO, they will be making that call.”\nOnline classifieds business Carousell — one of Golden Gate’s portfolio names — isreportedly exploring listing options via the SPAC route.\nTrends\nGolden Gate said in a report released Thursday that by 2030, the number of IPOs in Southeast Asia will cross 300 as more local start-ups seek to list in domestic public markets. The venture firm expects a rise in medical technology start-ups, as well as for social commerce to dominate online transactions.\nAs the coronavirus pandemic pushed manyphysical business transactions online, Lauria pointed out that tech firms in areas such as food delivery, telemedicine, e-commerce and financial technology have seen strong growth. That trend is expected to continue in the near future.\nSoutheast Asia is home to some400 million internet users and 10% of them went online for the first time in 2020. The internet economy in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam and Thailand — the largest economies in the region — is predicted to cross $300 billion by 2025, according to a report last year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":160,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"EN","currentLanguage":"EN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":83,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ORIG"},"commentList":[{"id":5235982,"commentId":"5235982","gmtCreate":1626404245373,"gmtModify":1663231043946,"authorId":3585873168332779,"author":{"id":3585873168332779,"idStr":"3585873168332779","authorId":3585873168332779,"name":"ilovekirby","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150e39396270b3385fcaa9d5b241a4e1","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":170961517,"objectIdStr":"170961517","type":1,"supId":0,"supIdStr":"0","prevId":0,"prevIdStr":"0","content":"Well Grab is also considering secondary listing in Singapore, which may not be a bad thing if investors are concerned about the listing in US.","text":"Well Grab is also considering secondary listing in Singapore, which may not be a bad thing if investors are concerned about the listing in US.","html":"Well Grab is also considering secondary listing in Singapore, which may not be a bad thing if investors are concerned about the listing in US.","likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"subComments":[{"id":5237150,"commentId":"5237150","gmtCreate":1626414473149,"gmtModify":1635227989499,"authorId":3574987111088333,"author":{"id":3574987111088333,"idStr":"3574987111088333","authorId":3574987111088333,"name":"FCY","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/57540ce9384964d094b3b7ee163ea81e","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":170961517,"objectIdStr":"170961517","type":1,"supId":5235982,"supIdStr":"5235982","prevId":0,"prevIdStr":"0","content":"But singapore valuation would not match up with the SPAC valuation","text":"But singapore valuation would not match up with the SPAC valuation","html":"But singapore valuation would not match up with the SPAC valuation"}],"verified":10,"allocateAmount":0,"commentType":"valid","coins":0,"score":0}],"isCommentEnd":false,"isTiger":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"url":"/m/post/170961517"}
