How can we define this past year? Unprecedented, surprising, maybe volatile?

Since 2017, we have covered countless technology companies across China, Southeast Asia and India. In the past three years, each company has faced different situations — some have risen above their ranks and some have fallen behind; all have gained much experience. Yet some companies that have weathered the storm despite the external challenges and focused on technological innovation whilst strengthening their business. Many of these tech companies reached new heights, gaining capital and market favour along the way.

As we start 2021 afresh, KrASIA presents the most noteworthy tech companies in Asia; based in China, Southeast Asia and India. We aim to highlight their achievements for our global audience and support our shared belief in the future.
