About Aura Ventures

We are also founders. We understand that company building can be like pushing a boulder up a hill. Investors need to be there at every step of the way – when the chips are down, customers are leaving and the hype cycle is at it's lowest. Once we back a startup - we back them. We have had the privilege to partner with companies such as Catapult, Shippit and Lygon as one of the first VC cheques in. As early stage investors, we get to believe in founders before everyone else does - when success is not necessarily obvious. We are looking to invest in the best founders in the region and use our network to unlock the next opportunity for domestic founders in South East Asia. Let’s change the world together.
