About AFX

Asia Fund X (AFX) is an opportunity fund in the face of challenges and transformations.

MSW Ventures help AFX evaluate potential investments based on their sustainability and long-term success, looking beyond traditional performance metrics to gain an understanding of their business model and exit potential. We seek out promising startups in the digital economies of Southeast Asia, particularly in Data Tech, Enterprise Tech, Sustainability, and Food & AgriTech with established product-market fit and experienced founders. 

Our Thesis

The increasing impermanence of technology today has highlighted the transience of business-as-usual (BAU). This has necessitated companies to continually reassess their position in the business value chain to remain as market leaders.

As advocates of genuine value creation, MSW Ventures partners with companies that have the potential and courage to lead the reshaping of their industries.

Our Strategy

With a deep understanding of the rapidly changing technological landscape, MSW Ventures is uniquely positioned to provide the guidance and support that businesses need to succeed in this new era.

We bolster people, connecting entrepreneurs with mentors who open doors to new markets and industries; we're navigators, providing tailored advice and equipping our founders with the right tools.

We empower corporates and enterprise investors in the discovery of investment opportunities and capability-building acquisitions.

Founder’s Message

In recent years, we have witnessed the emergence of transformative and disruptive technologies in response to significant changes in our world. The pandemic, for instance, has accelerated the adoption of remote work, digitalization, and contactless transactions, leading industries to swiftly adapt to the new normal. While some consider these challenges, I view them as boundless opportunities — a constant reminder to think ahead and future-proof.

Drawing inspiration from our Southeast Asian foreparents who have redefined what it means to be an entrepreneur, the essence of MSW Ventures is birthed — a company resilient in the face of adversity (mettle), with unabashed honesty and directness (salt), and a commitment to creating long-term value for stakeholders (wealth). Our vision is simple: to be a guiding beacon for promising tech startups and to guide them to create real value for society.

As I embark on this journey, I'm thrilled to have a team of passionate individuals who share our vision. We're committed to bringing good to society by providing guidance, resources, and mentorship to our portfolio companies every step of the way to help them bring innovative ideas to life.

Thank you for considering MSW Ventures as your partner on this journey. We look forward to joining efforts with you and unlocking new possibilities for transformative growth and success.
