The Connective Tissue of
Southeast Asian Innovation
TRIVE is not just an investment firm; we are the connective tissue between Southeast Asia's established industrial titans and its most ambitious technology pioneers — bridging legacy capital with the next generation of high-growth tech.
Local fluency.
Institutional rigour.
One firm.
Since 2015, our founding partners have navigated the nuanced cultural and economic corridors of Southeast Asia, building a distributed team that speaks the local languages of both business and tech.
We don't parachute capital into markets we don't understand. We operate from within — embedded across the region's most dynamic corridors, connected to the families and founders who are shaping its future.
Founded on a Singular Regional Truth
Founded in 2015, TRIVE began with a singular focus on the untapped potential of Southeast Asian founders. We recognized a unique regional truth: 92% of businesses in Southeast Asia are family-owned.
While these legacies were built on foundations of real estate and traditional industry, a generational shift is occurring. The next generation of leaders is looking toward Web3, Venture Capital, and Private Equity to redefine their legacies and future-proof their assets.
TRIVE sits at the center of this transition — unlocking "Family Alpha" by merging the stability and market share of established conglomerates with the agility of high-growth technology.
We believe in the power of patience. At TRIVE, we don't believe in "fast capital" — we believe in deep roots. While the rest of the industry moves at the speed of a social media feed, we spend 3 to 9 months getting to know our founders before a single dollar is committed.
As the Southeast Asian market has matured, so have we. We have evolved from a specialist seed-stage investor into a comprehensive early-stage platform managing distinct, high-conviction strategies.
Today, our portfolio of 20+ companies — spanning FinTech, Mobility, EdTech, CleanTech, and many more — stands as a testament to our ability to identify "Essential Tech" that solves real-world problems.
We aren't looking for the next fleeting trend; we are looking for the next pillar of the Southeast Asian economy.
A Handshake with the Families That Own the Market
We don't just offer a check; we offer a handshake with the families that own the supply chains, the retail networks, and the market share you aim to disrupt. We provide the institutional bridge needed to scale within complex regional markets.
