We believe true innovation comes from embedding research into real-world practice.
At Reapra, everyone engages in both - driving continuous learning through a collaborative, generalist approach that pushes the boundaries of entrepreneurship, lifelong learning and long-term impact.
Launched in 2014, Reapra is a Singapore-based venture and investment group dedicated to building sustainable businesses.
Unlike traditional VCs, we take a hands-on, founder-first approach - because we believe strong founders drive lasting companies.
With patient capital, long-term support, and the space and resources to grow, we help entrepreneurs build profitable businesses that create meaningful impact on society, the environment, and future industries.
Launched in January 2014, we are a Future industry builder and investment group based in Singapore with a strategic focus on developing sustainable businesses.
What is a Future industry builder?
We identify with a 'build' mentality, as opposed to a 'sell' mentality. Our focus is on developing the founder who in turn will be the driving force behind any business.
Unlike traditional venture capital firms, we are in for the long run, and our patient capital approach gives both the founder and business the space to grow with a long-term view.
Shuhei, who founded SMS Co., Ltd - one of the largest Asian healthcare information platforms with presence in over 13 countries and over 30 different revenue streams - is your quintessential entrepreneur.
It took a mere 5 years from start-up to IPO, establising Shuhei as one of the fastest, and also the youngest in Japanese history to do so.
After being the CEO for 11 years, he relinquished his position at SMS Co., Ltd in 2014, and embarked on a journey to support the start-up scene - to which Reapra was founded.
Shuhei currently remains the biggest shareholder of SMS Co., Ltd, which is continuing to grow with steady annual increases in its revenue as well as overall market value, even after his resignation - a testament to his philosophy that a company's success should never be pegged to a single person.
Our mission, as a team in a complex world, is to better society. To give back, and to improve ourselves along the way. Each and every one of us at Reapra is here for this journey.
