What is TOP100?

For those who may not be familiar with the TOP100 program, it’s an annual event organized by e27 that recognizes the most promising startups in Asia.

It began as a startup pitching competition in 2011, before evolving into a platform that connects startups with potential investors. The selected, most promising startups are given a chance to showcase at Echelon Asia Summit, attended by the region's top investors and corporates. 

The competition is open to startups in a wide range of industries and categories, from e-commerce to fintech and beyond. The finalists are selected based on a variety of factors, including market potential, traction, and operations.

What does it mean to be a frontrunner for TOP100?

e27 highlights some of the startups that are one step closer to competing in this year's TOP100. The selection process is rigorous, and rightly so, because thousands of applications are made each year. 

We are proud to be part of the first batch of frontrunners for the competition and will do our best in the next steps of the application process.
