Pilon is so proud to be Robinsons Bank’s fintech partner, her incredible supply chain financing journey and her positive impact on the SMEs for the Gokongwei Group.

SMEs are indeed the backbone of the economy, and one of their most significant challenges has always been access to financing. Robinsons Bank’s commitment to addressing this issue through the Supplier Experience program is nothing short of inspiring. The opportunity to offer supply chain financing to the suppliers of the conglomerate, with Universal Corporation Robina as the pilot anchor since 2021, is a testament to Robinsons Bank’s dedication to uplifting the lives of these suppliers and supporting their growth.

We look forward to celebrating many more successes together and once again, congratulations!

Pilon in 50 rising startups in Singapore by Tech in Asia data

Which startups are on the path to becoming the next big thing? One way to tell would be to check when they’ve raised a new round. Using Tech in Asia data. Tech in Asia has generated a list of startups in Singapore that have recently raised funding.

The constantly updated list only covers companies up to the series E stage. Each entry includes key details about the funding round.

Singapore-based fintech startup Pilon is expanding its presence in the Philippine market after raising an undisclosed sum from Manila-based early-stage venture investor Kaya Founders.

The financial injection from Kaya followed a recent Seed round in which Pilon, co-founded by Alex Chua and Eddie Lee in 2020, raised $5.2 million. The startup has already established a dedicated division in Metro Manila to support its expansion plans.

The additional funding will also be used to improve Pilon’s digital product offerings, expand its presence in existing markets like the Philippines and Cambodia, and explore new markets like Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia in the coming year.

“Businesses know “cash is king” and Singaporean-owned startup, Pilon, believes that “cash flow is queen” and just as important for businesses. In a time when firms find solutions to streamline their supply chains, Pilon Co-founder and CEO Eddie Lee’s company thought of offering a platform that optimises cash flow for both suppliers and buyers.”

Singapore Business Review did an interview with Pilon on how we started and went deeper into the supply chain financing solution that we are solving across South East Asia.
