new southeast asia startup templates
share:
We’re excited to release eight new, free legal templates for Southeast Asian startups:
- a startup shareholders’ agreement
- a SAFE
- a KISS term sheet
- an advisor share agreement
- an m&a term sheet
- an intercompany loan agreement
- a deed of variation
- a deed of termination
We’ve also updated some of our existing templates including the ESOP rules, KISS convertible note and our series A term sheet.
The expanded suite of templates cover the basics for tech startups as they build a company in the region, including flipping to Singapore, governance, incentivising founders and employees, raising capital and m&a.
You can find all of these templates, along with loads of great blogs, case studies, guides and doc makers, on our site.
These resources, along with our recently announced map of the funding terms online tool, make the Kindrik Partners website a must visit resource for all aspiring Southeast Asia tech startups.

Kindrik Partners advised VC firm Illuminate Financial on its investment in Singapore-based AI-driven data processing and automation company bluesheets. Illuminate led the US$6.5 million series A round. Other returning investors included Insignia Ventures Partners, Antler Elevate, and 1982 Ventures.
Illuminate invests in B2B fintech and enterprise software companies that build solutions for the financial services industry. Backed by global financial institutions such as Citi, JP Morgan, Barclays, Jefferies, Singapore Exchange Group, and BNY Mellon, Illuminate uses its extensive network and industry knowledge to help their portfolio companies achieve their full potential in addition to providing capital.
bluesheets offers AI-driven data processing and workflow automation software that helps businesses digitise and automate their bookkeeping processes. It plans to use the funds to further enhance its AI capabilities and accelerate growth in key APAC markets, including Singapore, Thailand, ANZ, and Hong Kong.
We’re happy to have advised Singapore-based synthetic data company Betterdata on an oversubscribed seed round of $1.65 million, led by Investible.
The company was founded in 2021 by Dr. Uzair Javaid and Kevin Yee and allows clients to share data faster and more securely in compliance with stricter data privacy regulations being introduced around the world. Betterdata uses generative AI to convert real data into synthetic data that looks, feels, and behaves like real datasets. These synthetic datasets retain the structure and correlations of the original data while eliminating the privacy and security concerns that come with holding and sharing sensitive data.
Betterdata plans to use the funding to publicly launch its product, hire more staff as the company scales, and improve its technology stack, with the aim of providing support for single-table, multi-table, and time-series datasets. The company also plans to expand across the Asia-Pacific region over the next two years.
