Working Capital for Tech Founders.No Equity Required.

A new kind of credit fund for Southeast Asian tech. We lend against enterprise receivables, so founders get the working capital they need without giving up ownership.

You Have Paying Customers and Real Receivables.
Your Bank Says No Anyway.

01
The Receivables Trap

Southeast Asian tech startups are generating real revenue from paying customers of every kind — enterprises, institutions, and established businesses. They have signed contracts, recurring revenue, and collectible receivables. By every logical measure, they should qualify for working capital debt.

02
Traditional Banks Say No

Banks across Southeast Asia require years of audited financials, hard collateral, and profitable track records that early-stage tech companies cannot produce. Strong, paying customers are not enough. The relationship doesn’t fit the mold.

03
The VC Dilution Penalty

Venture capital is the only alternative, but VC dilutes founders at the moment they need capital most. Most VCs aren’t writing checks for working capital anyway. There is no middle option. Until now.

Not equity. Not a bank loan.

Venture credit occupies the structural sweet spot between dilutive equity and unavailable bank loans. See the full fund terms →

For Investors

A differentiated approach to
early-stage investing.

New Avenue Capital believes early-stage investing can better align the interests of entrepreneurs and investors through structured capital solutions. By combining senior secured financing with equity participation, the firm seeks to provide downside protection while preserving meaningful upside.

The strategy is designed to generate regular cash yield through interest income, supporting the potential for periodic distributions alongside long-term capital appreciation. Investments are selected through disciplined underwriting and structured with a strong focus on capital preservation, efficient deployment, and clearly defined paths to realisation.

By combining the characteristics of private credit and venture investing, New Avenue Capital aims to deliver a differentiated investment approach focused on recurring income, capital preservation, and participation in the growth of the next generation of exceptional companies.
