The Independent Investor Information

The Independent Investor is a digital newsroom covering early-stage businesses across emerging economies. We are a young team of writers, investors, and entrepreneurs who believe that accurate reporting and radical transparency are essential to supporting the future of business in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. We believe there should be more to enterprise journalism than reportage on conglomerate and later-stage enterprises. We aim to be bold and unconventional in our coverage, shining a light on the founders and investors often overlooked by traditional channels. Our mission is to find the most interesting grassroots stories from the Philippine early-stage ecosystem, and to share them with the world.
