We help tech companies boost growth by entering the vast new market of Southeast Asia

HOW WE HELP

Maximise growth in a new market with minimal risk

Our unique approach in the technology and digital industry focuses on five fundamental pillars.

Southeast Asia will more than double its middle class consumers to 400 million by 2030, supporting a massive B2B and B2C adoption of tech. The opportunity is clear but expansion to any new market is fraught with failure, and Southeast Asia requires a precise combination of local insights, strategic adaptation, and robust execution.

We draw on two decades leading successful market entries and expansions in ASEAN and combine that with our specialist knowledge of what works and what doesn’t for high-growth tech firms. We create a bespoke expansion strategy based on our winning formula and, if desired, execute on this on the client’s behalf.

Targeting on bespoke performance metrics

Most high-growth tech companies take a metrics-based approach to growth. We often target market entry planning and execution on bespoke performance metrics to ensure that growth is being achieved in the ways that really count.

Finding the optimal product-market fit

The fragmented Southeast Asian market with its many cultures can disrupt an established product-market fit. We help clients to balance centralised product development with local nuances, via rapid and novel feedback loops.

Resourcing for lasting customer success

In Southeast Asia, human-to-human trust underpins sales. Hiring local talent or forming alliances ensures cultural empathy, while robust pre- and post-sales support fosters loyalty and brand credibility.

Maximising successive investment valuations

While boosting growth via ASEAN market entry can make metrics-oriented and strategic sense, our experience and approach allows us to leverage other factors that help clients to maximise valuation at successive investment rounds.

Validating both the problem and solution

Tech companies tend to be created to solve a problem. The existence of this problem is often a long-standing assumption in the home market, but in a relatively unknown market, companies need to use all available data to validate what solution opportunities genuinely exist.

Silberstein + Partners were more than consultants - they were our Southeast Asia launchpad. From navigating local complexities to connecting us with partners and potential clients, their hands-on support made a huge difference.
