Ecosystem Roundup: A snapshot of SEA startups in 2023; LiveIn gets US$8.3M in Pre-Series B

Dear reader,

This is the last working day of 2023. We hope that you get to tie up all loose ends beautifully in your work, before going off to spend the New Year weekend with your loved ones.

In the last week of 2023, we published a compilation of our achievements this year with the e27 Contributor Programme. We also introduced a Startup Ecosystem Roundup that presents a snapshots of the startup ecosystem in 2023 in five Southeast Asian (SEA) countries. Our contributors also give the final kick with their thought leadership pieces on strategic transformation, reviving a failing startup, and the impact of modern observability.

The startup ecosystem remains active. One of the funding news that companies announced is US$8.3 million in Pre-Series B funding round for LiveIn, who plans to accelerate its regional expansion.

It has been a busy and colourful year, and we are grateful to have you in our community. We are looking forward to seeing you again in 2024.

Happy New Year.

Anisa,
Editor.
