We invest in opportunities backed by deep science.
Xora is an early-stage investment platform of Temasek. We typically invest as a lead or co-lead investor in the Seed and Series A rounds, and later rounds (via our parent company). While we are not limited by geography, we prioritize opportunities that possess a strong linkage with the Singapore science & technology ecosystem. Leveraging the Temasek global network of investors and operating companies, we are active partners to ambitious founders building the next generation of impactful, world-changing companies.
