TIACON25 Main Stage - Is home where the heart is for startup exits?

For Southeast Asian (SEA) startups eyeing an exit, the decision between listing locally (Jakarta/SGX) or seeking a global stage (HKEX/NASDAQ) is complex. This high-stakes panel from the Tech in Asia Conference 2025 debates the merits of "home market" IPOs versus cross-border listings. Hear directly from key representatives of major regional and global exchanges—Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), Singapore Exchange (SGX), and Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEX)—as they discuss how their markets are adapting to attract high-growth tech companies. Key Discussion Points: • The Local Advantage: Examining the regulatory environment, investor base, and valuation dynamics for tech IPOs on regional exchanges (IDX, SGX). • Going Global: The appeal of major international exchanges (HKEX) for greater liquidity and global exposure. • Startup Readiness: What financial metrics, corporate governance standards, and growth story are required for a successful tech listing in 2025. Future of Exits: Predictions on where the next generation of SEA tech unicorns will choose to ring the bell.
