We’ve reviewed hundreds of nominations from across Southeast Asia and have shortlisted over 90 founders.
Now it’s your turn to help decide who advances. The top 70 founders with the most votes will move on to the final judging round.
To maintain fairness and ensure that no deserving founder is overlooked, each judge is granted one wildcard. This allows them to nominate a founder who didn’t make it through popular vote but merits consideration.
To be included for consideration nominees must submit this form before 18th June 2025
We assess the founder’s background and leadership—how their experience, vision, and drive have propelled the company forward and given back to the community.
We review the company’s financial performance, including revenue growth and sustainability, to ensure it has a strong, proven foundation.
We evaluate the uniqueness and scalability of the business model, as well as its positive societal impact—how well it meets market needs and contributes to the community.
