The IdeaSpace Opportunity Fund
During the early stages of its Opportunity Fund, IdeaSpace first invested in Coins.ph for Php1 million, eventually netting a 5x return after the startup was acquired by Indonesian tech platform provider Go-Jek. Since that initial investment, IdeaSpace has deployed its resources to its portfolio startups, which include 1Export, Experience Philippines, Cocotel, Airship, TimeFree Innovations, and to startups outside of the IdeaSpace network such as Acudeen and Qwikwire.
Today, the Opportunity Fund aims to cater to early stage to pre-series A startups, particularly to founders who may be looking for funding to help make key business and strategic decisions.
IdeaSpace evaluates startups in areas such as business model, traction, financials, and team competencies.
