阿里香港創業者基金參投大灣區創業基金 接棒助有意大灣區發展初創提供B輪或以上融資
阿里巴巴香港創業者基金今天宣布,將以錨定投資者(anchor investor)身份投資AEF大灣區創業基金,阿里巴巴香港創業者基金執行董事周駱美琪指,大灣區基金擬提供合共20億港元融資方案,預計將於2022年上半年完成募資。
她指出大灣區創業基金主要為有意進入大灣區發展初創提供B輪或以上融資,而阿里巴巴香港創業者基金將繼續助香港初創進行較早期融資,當初創希望發展大灣區市場或在大灣區擴張時,大灣區創業基金則可接捧支持其發展。她透露基金對每家初創的融資不設上限,並會按企業的資金需求、發展階段判斷所作投資,例如B輪融資相對C、D輪融資金額則會較細,所以要視乎實際情況而定。
被問及投資對象,周駱美琪透露與一般創投一樣,基金會視乎初創的產品是否具突破性或新意念,亦會留意其市場發展空間等,熱門行業包括人工智能、機械人、可持續發展行業及生物科技等,而大灣區則可能會有較多工業4.0的項目。
出席同一場合有兩家曾接受阿里巴巴香港創業者基金投資的企業,其中有光集團有限公司創辦人兼首席執行官溫豪夫表示對大灣區創業基金有興趣,認為早前獲投資後對品牌及市場拓展有很大幫助,冀日後在大灣區發展並再深入融入阿里體系,而往後公司發展亦需資金注入。而橋彼道聯合創辦人兼首席執行官黃永東則指公司正進行B輪融資,冀可再獲阿里支持,認為大灣區創業基金與公司業務貼近,同時亦希望可獲其他資源及網絡上的支持。(el/k) ~
