Sirius Venture Capital

Sirius Venture Capital Pte Ltd is a Singapore-based boutique venture capital firm founded in 2002 by Eugene Wong, who continues to serve as Managing Director and Founder. Unlike most Singapore VCs, Sirius invests exclusively off its own balance sheet — it is not a pooled fund and does not manage third-party capital, giving Wong permanent, patient capital with direct personal alignment with every founder. This structure has allowed the firm to maintain a consistent, long-horizon presence in the Singapore market through multiple economic cycles since inception. Over the past several years the firm has concentrated heavily on food tech and agritech, backing internationally alongside a broader portfolio that also touches retail, transportation and logistics tech, and financial services. The live portfolio consists of roughly 12 startups, with check sizes clustering around $300,000 to $1.5 million per company, with selective follow-ons into Series A rounds that the firm helps lead. Notable investments include Hargol FoodTech — the Israeli grasshopper-protein producer that Sirius co-anchored alongside SLJ Investment Partners through a $600,000 seed in 2018 and a $3 million Series A in 2020 — representing one of the earliest institutional bets on edible-insect protein as a sustainable food source. The firm's first disclosed IPO exit is Five Star Business Finance, the India-listed NBFC. Sirius is frequently covered in Singapore media and food-tech press as a pioneer investor in alternative protein, cellular agriculture, and sustainable food systems. Wong's long track record in Singapore's investment ecosystem, spanning more than two decades, underpins the firm's sourcing relationships across Southeast Asia, Israel, and beyond.
