The Philippines’ Business Reality TV Show Seeks Representatives From Malaysia

2022-05-18

Southeast Asia’s first business reality TV show designed to back and scale the region’s next unicorns, “The Final Pitch ASEAN (TFPA),“ is searching for tycoons and business leaders to represent select Southeast Asian countries as investor-judges in the show. After seven successful season runs in the Philippines, TFPA expands to the rest of the region and will feature high-growth startups and strategic investors from Southeast Asia.

Golden Chance to Represent Malaysia in an International TV Show

TFPA is looking for investor-judges who can make investments in scale-up startups that want to expand to their home countries. The business show is now on the lookout for representatives from Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam to be the face of their countries in the regionally aired show.

They have to be in a position to be able to invest in high-growth companies but at the same time will serve as strategic partners for the expansion of any scale-up that wants to enter their respective countries. They have to be successful diversified family conglomerates or seasoned investors looking at investing in mostly series A and up startups.

Aguilar stated that the ASEAN version will follow the same format as the highly successful Philippine edition, the show’s proof of concept that has helped more than 100 startups and successfully funded millions of dollars into the Philippine startup ecosystem.

The show will initially be selecting investor-judge candidates from each country within the next two months through a regional roadshow.
