Singapore’s food waste problem is often framed as a consumer habit or a logistics issue. For Life Lab Resources, it is also a feedstock problem, and one that could help ease another pressure point in Southeast Asia: rising demand for more sustainable aquaculture feed. The Singapore-based startup has raised US$1 million in fresh funding to […] The post Life Lab Resources grabs US$1M to turn food waste into aquaculture feed appeared first on e27.

Asia’s ETF market has never been more dynamic. Assets are growing, new issuers are entering the market, investors are more engaged and product innovation is accelerating. For many years, the region’s ETF industry was defined by its potential. Today, that potential is becoming reality, with Asia emerging as the world’s fastest-growing ETF market. Yet growth […] The post Can Asia’s ETF infrastructure keep pace with its growth? appeared first on e27.

Cynthia Wihardja’s LinkedIn post begins not with a legal argument, but with a distinction: “There are two ways to lose your freedom. One is done to you. The other, you do to yourself.” The first, she says, is what has happened to her brother, Donald Wihardja, the former head of MDI Ventures, who has begun […] The post TaniHub, prison and grace: Cynthia Wihardja’s post gives a human face to VC risk appeared first on e27.

In the last week of August, Viettel’s network engineers were doing something most of their customers never saw. They were moving traffic in real time, pushing 800 gigabits per second onto one undersea cable, another 300 onto a second, then routing whatever was left over a terrestrial fibre line that runs through Laos into Singapore. […] The post Why scaling across Southeast Asia means pricing in the cable you never see appeared first on e27.

There’s a specific kind of meeting I used to dread in the early years of building Ngital. You’ve prepared everything. You’ve built the presentation carefully. You’ve researched the client’s industry. You walk in, and within the first 10 minutes, you realise the person across the table has already decided what they want, and what they […] The post What building Bangladesh’s agency actually looks like from the inside – Part 1 appeared first on e27.

Gold has been a store of wealth across Asia for generations, yet access through traditional financial markets still carries familiar friction. Investors often need dedicated brokerage accounts, fixed trading windows and capital separated from money held elsewhere. What is changing is not what Asian investors want to own. It is how they access it. A […] The post Asian investors aren’t choosing between crypto and TradFi anymore appeared first on e27.

A startup doubles its headcount. It opens a new sales channel. It ships a second product line. All of this happens while the business is still running on a spreadsheet, a half-built dashboard, or a weekly gut-check meeting. Nobody notices the gap at first, growth feels like growth. Then, three months in, someone on the […] The post Startups keep scaling ops before they scale data — Here’s why it backfires appeared first on e27.

Apple has reportedly been testing screen-less fitness tracker prototypes for months.

For centuries, doctors have treated patients without having immediate access to an encyclopaedia of medical knowledge. A physician examining a patient did not need to read every medical textbook before deciding what to do. They observed symptoms, considered the patient’s history, recognised patterns, weighed possibilities and drew on years of experience. They did not know […] The post The future of healthcare AI isn’t more data. It’s better context appeared first on e27.

Every growing company eventually builds a ritual around checking in on itself. Daily standups, weekly syncs, status calls stacked on status calls, all in the name of staying aligned. At some point, that ritual stops serving the work because the team starts doing the check-in instead of doing the actual work. Fixing it meant asking […] The post How I rebuilt my company’s meeting culture after realising we were drowning in status updates appeared first on e27.

For years, one question has dominated the conversation around artificial intelligence: How many jobs will AI replace? After working with enterprises in Southeast Asia to deploy AI into real business processes, I increasingly think we are asking the wrong question. The more important question is: How much more can an organisation accomplish when AI becomes […] The post AI won’t just replace jobs. It will redesign how companies work appeared first on e27.
