CyberAgent Capital runs 'Monthly Pitch Asia' fundraising event online

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 22 -- CyberAgent Capital Inc has announced that ‘Monthly Pitch Asia’, its biggest global monthly fundraising event for start-ups in Japan targeted to Southeast Asia, was held online.

January 2021 marks the 44th time CyberAgent Capital has been holding this monthly event since 2016, with 330 companies taking the stage, making it the largest fundraising event in Japan.

The latest event, which under normal circumstances is held offline, took place online on Jan 13, featuring pitches from six Southeast Asian start-ups and meetings between start-ups and investors worldwide. 

According to a statement, the previous ‘Monthly Pitch’ was an overseas edition held in Jakarta in 2019.

Among start-ups that took the stage were Kyna (Vietnam): a leading online education service in Vietnam; Edoctor (Vietnam): online health platform service in Vietnam;  and TheBank (Vietnam): a pricing comparison service for financial products in Vietnam.

Others were Getlinks (Thailand): online recruitment platform for IT personnel in Thailand; Viddsee (Indonesia, Singapore): the world's largest professional creator platform for short movies in Southeast Asia; and, Moladin (Indonesia): the biggest EC platform service specialising in motorbikes and cars.
