Asia’s family offices invested US$24.3 billion into global AI private rounds in 2025, nearly three times the previous year, with a further US$950 million committed in early 2026, Bloomberg reported citing PitchBook data.
Despite robust appetite for names like SpaceX, OpenAI and Anthropic, soaring US valuations are prompting some investors to look closer to home. Asian AI companies attracting family office capital include China’s DeepRoute.AI and Singapore’s Advance.AI.
“Valuations for high-profile US AI companies are so expensive, it’s much harder to take that leap compared to only a year ago,” Carret Private Investments managing partner Kenny Ho told Bloomberg.
