2. CONFIDENTIAL
We are pleased to present our 2017 Asia software industry
overview
▪ In the following slides we have synthesized our views on the key themes in Asia software, particularly ASEAN
▪ With even legacy software vendors going the cloud route, software has been seeing a 180 degree turn towards a
subscription model. Software-as-a-service is perceived as a continual growth focused approach for software
companies and the growing investor comfort in SaaS investments implies that this is an ideal time for companies to
raise funding or acquire other companies to enhance their capabilities
▪ ComCap is a premier boutique investment bank focused on the intersection of commerce and capital, with key
subsectors including B2C ecommerce, B2B SaaS, B2B services for retail (IT and marketing services, fulfillment and
logistics and call center), payments, marketplaces and digitally native brands
▪ Headquartered in San Francisco with a presence in Singapore, our firm works with mid-cap public companies on
buyside initiatives, and with public and private growth companies on equity financings and strategic M&A
▪ In addition to being the only boutique focused exclusively on disruptive commerce models, we differentiate by
bringing bulge bracket techniques to emerging models, a strong and uncommon buyside/strategy practice, deep
understanding of industry drivers and synergy analyses, deep relationships across the sector and worldwide
coverage with closed transactions in the United States, Japan, China, the ASEAN region, Western and Eastern
Europe and Latin America
▪ If you'd like to connect with us over the phone and/or meet in person to discuss your strategic initiatives, please

SaaS + Marketplace is a powerful combination
▪ SaaS can be sold to the demand or / and to the supply side
▪ Two ways of monetisation:
▪ Subscription (+ sign-up fee): SaaS model
▪ Transaction fee: Marketplace model

APIs & micro-SaaS providing new business opportunities6
Software requirements can be customized and built
✓ Modular build
✓ Faster, Cheaper and Smarter
✓ Independent
✓ Sticky, easy to build and maintain for developers
A new breed of SaaS startup doesn't
deliver a fully-featured application, but
instead, it provides an API that allows
customers to tailor services to their needs.
For example, Clearbit's Enrichment API
can augment customer information by
taking an email address and collating both
publicly available information and its own
web-scraped data to provide rich
information about that contact, including
name, job title, company, social media
accounts, and so on.
Other Clearbit APIs allow you to check
individuals and organisations against a
consolidated global watchlist, create
targeted lists of companies and search for
contacts at companies using job title and
domain.
Another related trend identified is the
'Micro-SaaS' business -- small teams
producing niche products for very specific
needs or add-on products that complement
existing SaaS applications.
▪ Algolia offers an API for search, allowing SaaS vendors to effectively
outsource the handling of advanced, high-performance search in their
apps
▪ A little Market is a European ecommerce marketplace which needed to
improve the quality of search while getting more ecommerce metrics.
▪ Today, Algolia powers the search for A little Market, and has been
instrumental in the reduction of search load by 70%
▪ There was an increase in conversion rate 10% after implementing
Algolia’s search API which had a noticeable impact on revenue for the
firm

tools.

Force.com had over 1,000 customer accounts. As of 2013,
the Force.com platform has 1.4 million registered
developers
Box Platform
Box Platform allows users to:
• Accelerate Business

various pieces of the Box product set such as
storage services, encryption, security, file

Creative Cloud, Okta etc.
