These include Princeton Digital, Glance, Funding Societies (Series D and debt financing), Insider, and Next Gen Foods.<\/p><p>Indonesia came in second in terms of deal volume and value. The amount raised by 34 startups in the country in the month stood at $198 million \u2014 far lower than Singapore&#8217;s tally. About 18 deals, however, did not disclose the amount raised.<\/p><p>Indonesian Digital banking and finance platform Akulaku raised $100 million in funding from Thai lender Siam Commercial Bank (SCB), making it the only Indonesian megadeal.<\/p><p>Indonesia had witnessed a strong 2021 with seven unicorns minted and the local IPO of homegrown e-commerce firm Bukalapak \u2014 a sign that exits are visible and feasible in this market. For 2022, Indonesia-focused VCs say they remain bullish.<\/p><p>Meanwhile, the Philippines climbed to the third spot in terms of startup funding in February, with four private firms raising $90.3 million, led by cryptocurrency exchange Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (PDAX), which raised $50 million in Series B funding. New York-based investment firm Tiger Global Management invested $35 million in the said round.<\/p><p>Another Philippines startup, payments processing firm PayMongo, also raised $31 million in a Series B funding round.

In 2021, one in every four dollars invested went to fintech, driven by the rising adoption of e-payments and decentralised finance (DeFi).<\/p><p>E-commerce startups, which raised the most money in January, secured only $45.6 million in funding from eight transactions.<\/p><p>Data analytics and AI raised $109.5 million while marketing tech secured $131 million.

There were two Series C rounds and a Series E round that raised $231 million and $100 million, respectively.<\/p><p>Princeton Digital\u2019s $500-million funding was the lone private equity deal in February.<\/p><p>A recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dealstreetasia.com\/stories\/nick-nash-indonesia-pe-vc-summit-2022-284314\/\">Asia Partners report<\/a> recently said there remains a Series C and Series D funding gap of about $1.1 billion relative to China in Southeast Asia.
