Can Singapore’s AI start-ups build lasting businesses?
Singapore drew 94% of Southeast Asia’s venture funding in the first half of 2026, and investors now want proof that AI start-ups can stay useful as model providers add features. Tin Men Capital Co-Founder and Managing Partner Jeremy Tan told The Edge Singapore a start-up’s defence lies in proprietary data, industry expertise, distribution and customer relationships. “None of these are things that a model provider adds in a release,” he said.
Can Southeast Asia claim its place in the AI economy?
Murli Ravi, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Tin Men Capital, was featured in The Edge Singapore's feature exploring whether Southeast Asia can move beyond hosting AI infrastructure to building lasting enterprise value. The feature, which also drew on perspectives from INSEAD, NUS Business School, and AI Singapore, examined the region's position in the global AI value chain and the gap between investment and commercial impact.
The piece highlighted Tin Men Capital portfolio companies Ailytics, Groundup.ai, and Graas as examples of Southeast Asian AI startups solving measurable enterprise problems across construction safety, predictive maintenance, and e-commerce.
