Singapore’s startup ecosystem witnessed a significant boost in September 2025, with a 14% increase in funding compared to the previous month, according to the latest report by Tracxn. The report, which tracks business activities in Singapore and Hong Kong, noted that whilst Hong Kong saw no deals, Singapore’s vibrant market continues to attract investors.
The report revealed that the total funding amount for Singapore startups reached $1.2b in September, driven by substantial investments in technology and healthcare sectors. Tracxn’s Manager of PR and Corporate Communications, Sahib Mendiratta, emphasised the importance of these sectors, stating, “The technology and healthcare industries are pivotal in driving Singapore’s innovation landscape.”
Key investments included a $300m funding round for a leading fintech company and a $200m injection into a health-tech startup. These investments underscore the confidence investors have in Singapore’s ability to foster innovative solutions and maintain its status as a regional hub for startups.
The report also highlighted the growing interest in sustainable technologies, with several green-tech startups securing significant funding. This trend aligns with Singapore’s commitment to sustainability and its strategic initiatives to support green innovation.
Looking ahead, the continued growth in funding and investor interest suggests a promising future for Singapore’s startup ecosystem. As the city-state strengthens its position as a leading innovation hub, further investments in emerging technologies are expected to drive economic growth and development.
