CFO, Ajaib

Co-founder, Sayurbox

Some key takeaways:

  • ADDX, a firm providing access to private markets, identified financial institutions to be their next expansion opportunity. Their plan to capitalize on this opportunity is to launch a Platform-as-a-Service for institutions to offer differentiated products to their clients.
  • Ajaib continues to believe in the potential of Indonesia’s young first-time investors. They cite reasons such as curiosity in investment products, active engagement in Cryptocurrency trading and their familiarity with customer behaviors to allow them to penetrate the market further.
  • Following the market crash, Sayurbox saw a change in investor sentiments on maintaining cash reserves within the company. The increased focus on gaining profitability placed more importance on cutting costs. Interestingly, in 2 – 3 months of implementing cost-trimming practices, margins improved drastically - promo users were eradicated and quality buyers with bigger basket sizes remained.

The Next Wave – Alternative Foods

24 February 2022

What started out as a niche vegan interest has now become more mainstream as consumers show increasing willingness to add alternative foods into their diet. Citing reasons such as climate impact, animal abuse, poor working conditions and unsustainable practices in traditional solutions, it is evident that there are compelling reasons to consider such alternatives.

 

In 2020 alone, the alternative food sector raised US$3.1 billion, 300% more than any single year in the industry’s history. COVID-19 has certainly accelerated the focus on sustainability, food stability and climate change with investors now quickly realizing that climate risk also translates to investment risk. With that in mind, sustainable solutions for protein production prove extremely attractive for both economic and environmental reasons.

Join us as we discuss the evolution beyond traditional food sources, the role of tech in expanding such offerings, and the outlook for this new and upcoming sector that will only continue to grow in importance.

The Next Wave - Mental-health Tech

22 October 2021

Why is investment funding for mental health-tech breaking records at US$852m in the first quarter of 2021?

In an environment of lockdowns and increased isolation, the increased psychological toll from the pandemic has vastly expanded the need for digital mental health services.


This sparked a surge of interest in businesses that provide them.

In a survey conducted by the Institute of Mental Health in Singapore, 10% of the country’s employees faced anxiety and extreme stress due to the pandemic.

The pandemic has affected employees’ long-term mental health, and employers could do more to support the mental health of their workforce to ready them for the return to normalcy.

Join us as we discuss the role of employers in managing their employees’ mental health, the different tools, and trends in mental health-tech available to aid them in this journey.
