Vital Signs:
The 2025 Tech in Asia Conference Report

A pulse check on the realities, anxieties, and opportunities shaping Southeast Asia’s tech future.

Southeast Asia’s tech scene isn’t what it used to be. After years of boom, the region now faces funding freezes, high-profile scandals, and global uncertainty. Yet the fundamentals that made SEA exciting — its young demographics and openness to innovation — remain resilient.

To understand where we stand, Tech in Asia surveyed 100+ founders, investors, and employees across the region.

The report touches on some key topics such as :

  • AI at work: 95% already use AI, but founders vs. employees clash on its impact.
  • China on the rise: Half of respondents now see China as the ecosystem blueprint.
  • Preference vs. reality: Employees want more flexibility than most companies currently allow.
