Board & Governance Practice
Building the boards that high-growth, founder-led companies deserve — not the ones they're told they need.
Board Building for the Builders
Most board advisory services were designed for established multinationals. We built ours for a different client: the high-growth, technology-driven, founder-led company that is scaling fast and needs board-level judgment to match.
Drawing on our own work advising high-growth companies across Asia Pacific, we have developed a board search and advisory capability specifically calibrated for early-stage and growth-stage companies.
The board of a Series B company is not a governance formality — it is a strategic asset. We help founders build boards they will actually use.
Our Approach
Founders First
We understand that a founder-led company needs board members who augment, not override. We place advisors who respect the founder's vision while bringing genuine governance rigour.
Operator Credibility
Every board member we recommend has built or scaled something. We do not place portfolio-padding generalists — we place operators who have lived the challenges your company is navigating.
Stage-Matched Judgment
A Series B board has different needs than a pre-IPO one. We are disciplined about matching director profiles to company stage.
Diversity as Competitive Advantage
High-growth companies in Asia operate across multiple cultures, languages, and regulatory environments. We actively build boards that reflect this complexity.
Profiles We Place
From early advisory boards to IPO-ready governance structures.
Role
Independent Director
Seasoned operators and former founders who bring fiduciary rigour and strategic challenge — particularly valuable at Series C and growth stages approaching an IPO.
Role
Audit & Risk Committee Member
Senior finance and risk professionals with listed company experience, matched to companies institutionalising their governance ahead of a liquidity event.
Role
Advisory Board Member
Domain experts, ecosystem connectors, and former operators who provide high-frequency strategic support outside formal board structures.
Role
Lead Independent Director
An experienced chair capable of managing the founder-investor dynamic and stewarding the company through a transition or growth inflection.
Who We Work With
Our Board Practice is designed for companies between seed and pre-IPO stages — typically Series A through Series D — that are building or refreshing their governance infrastructure for the first time.
We work with founders, lead investors, and existing board chairs across technology, fintech, consumer tech, and climate sectors in Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the broader Asia Pacific.
If you are preparing for a fundraise, an M&A process, or simply recognise that your board needs to evolve as fast as your company — we would like to talk.
