FocusTech Ventures

FocusTech Ventures is a Singapore-based venture creation firm founded in 2010 and approved as a technology incubator under Singapore's NRF-IDMPO iJAM Reload Scheme. Headquartered at Link@AMK in Ang Mo Kio, the firm is led by Chairman Dr. Felix Ong — former founder and CEO of Seksun Group, once the world's leading hard disk drive component manufacturer — and Founder and CEO Kelvin Ong. The four-member team supports founders solving real-world problems and improving workflows in enterprise industries including energy, finance, education, manufacturing, and healthcare. FocusTech invests primarily at pre-seed and seed stages, writing checks of $100,000 to $500,000 in B2B, SaaS, and IoT companies. The firm has built a portfolio of 16 companies across 12 technology investments, with a mix of B2C and B2B companies. Known investments include Aquatronik, an aquaculture technology startup backed in February 2022. FocusTech has also co-launched Germi8 Pte. Ltd., an agri-food focused private investment firm in Southeast Asia, alongside Leave a Nest, Kobashi Industries, and Euglena — extending its reach into sustainable food systems. Despite being Singapore-headquartered, FocusTech has directed a meaningful portion of its capital toward US-based startups, reflecting a thesis that early-stage technology companies across geographies can benefit from Singapore's strategic position as a gateway to Asian markets. The firm combines patient capital with hands-on operational mentoring drawn from Dr. Ong's decades of experience in hardware manufacturing and global business development.
