Valtech Shares Its Views and Experience in Startups’ Valuation and Their Attributes in Successful Fundraising

HONG KONG, March 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The true value of proper valuation comes from independence. Through independent research conducted by professional valuers, startups and venture capital firms gain access to objective analysis performed using appropriate valuation approaches. Valtech has actively helped numerous aspiring startups and fund managers by performing comprehensive business valuations, analysing business models and projected growth prospects, and in-depth benchmarking analysis. This support greatly facilitates and accelerates price discovery and deal negotiation processes.

Today, Max Tsang, a director of Valtech Valuation, — a CPA, CFA, FRM, Chartered Valuation Surveyor, and a business appraiser Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV) by AICPA — is pleased to share the firm’s insights and experience. The aim is to help more startups understand the true value of professional valuation and rethink how they should prepare for it.

Valuing a Business: More Art than Science

Valuation is not an exact science. The use of more data, research, and databases does not automatically lead to a more accurate result. Valuation is inherently dependent on the basis of value. Market value and investment value defined by International Valuation Standards (IVS) are possible basis of value for startup valuation. The selection of basis of value will depend on the purpose of valuation and the actual context. In addition, the judgment will also include underlying key assumptions and the details in application of valuation methods. Depending on knowledge and skills in finance and investment banking, valuation specialist can supplement the analysis using a great variety of skills such as monte carlo simulation, regression, waterfall charts etc. All these will affect the influence and impact of the valuation.

Valuation Methods Explained

There are three general approaches in valuation:

  1. Cost Approach
    This method is rarely applied in startup valuations, as most founders believe their innovative ideas are worth far more than the initial costs incurred.
  2. Income Approach
    This method can be applied, but it is often challenging for pre-revenue startups. However, a reasonable and well-supported financial projection and capital budgeting analysis can clearly communicate your financial goals and illustrate the expected growth trajectory over the next 3-5 years. With Valtech’s guidance, this becomes a logical and systematic process — identifying the value creation potential from each unit of product or service sold. By making reference to relevant sources, Valtech define realistic market size and growth assumptions, ensuring the financial model is logical and persuasive.
  3. Market Approach (They call it Comprehensive Benchmarking) 
    This approach uses comparative analysis, collecting valuation metrics from public companies and private transactions. Think of it like valuing your apartment based on recent sales of similar apartments nearby. However, startup founders often fall victim to survivorship bias — they focus only on announced valuations of successful startups, often ignoring adjustment factors like funding round stage, geography, and business model differences. In reality, systematic, logical, and persuasive adjustments are necessary to align benchmark data with the unique circumstances of the subject startup. Valtech ensures these adjustments are applied appropriately.

In application, there are further variations of method for better analysis. For example, risk net present value method (a variety of income approach) is considered to be a better method in valuing biotechnology and healthcare startups.

Budget Concerns — Finding the Right Balance

Valtech fully recognizes that early-stage startups often have tight budgets when appointing valuation specialists. However, the quality of your valuation report directly impacts investors’ first impressions of your company. A well-prepared valuation not only demonstrates professionalism, but also shows how well your team can communicate and support your claims with solid evidence and sensible forecasts.

Engaging a reputable and professional valuation team gives investors confidence that your valuation is grounded in independent analysis, rather than soley internal projections.

Avoid Over-Reliance on Generative AI for Business Plans

A lengthy business plan does not guarantee a good business plan. For valuation purposes, the focus should be on:

  • Your team’s profiles and experience
  • Your business model and its unique value proposition
  • The innovative and competitive aspects of your products or services
  • Clear and realistic expansion plans
  • A well-defined budget for utilizing the funds raised

Generative AI can assist in drafting, but blindly relying on AI-generated content often results in generic, unfocused plans that fail to address the unique qualities of your business. Investors expect tailored narratives with authentic insights — something no AI can fully capture.

Your Startup is Unique — Focus on Your Uniqueness

As a startup, you have a unique business idea — one that either solves a critical pain point in the market or disrupts existing players through innovation. While AI can assist in brainstorming, your competitive edge lies in your team’s creativity, execution capability, and market understanding.

Ask yourself: Can AI generate innovative business ideas? Yes — but the real question is: How unique, feasible, and defensible are those ideas?

Plenty of Successful Fundraising Stories from Valtech Clients

Valuation is not just about calculating numbers — it’s about explaining your venture through numbers. Valtech provides multi-dimensional analysis, considering both the founder’s perspective and the investor’s perspective. This balance helps create valuation reports that are credible and persuasive.

At the same time, investors rely on more than just valuation reports. Many uses proprietary scorecards to evaluate:

  • Team quality and experience
  • Product-market fit
  • Competitive advantage and IP
  • Business scalability and operational resilience
  • Exit potential and projected returns

Valtech has witnessed countless successful fundraising journeys among its clients — all at reasonable and defensible valuations. These startups come from diverse sectors, but they all share a common trait: they provide solid proof to justify their value. This proof can take various forms:

  • Well-articulated ideas with clear commercial potential
  • Working prototypes
  • A strong, experienced founding team
  • Established strategic partnerships
  • Demonstrated viability in reaching the next growth stage

Final Thoughts — Valtech’s Value Proposition

Startup valuation is not a one-size-fits-all exercise. Every startup has a unique story, growth trajectory, risk profile, and value proposition. At Valtech, they go beyond just crunching numbers. They help startups shape their valuation report, and navigate the challenging price discovery process with confidence.

If you want to secure investment at a reasonable and defensible valuation, you need more than just financial modeling skills — you need a trusted valuation partner who understands investor needs, market dynamics, and trends. This is exactly what Valtech Valuation delivers. Simply visit https://valtech-valuation.com

DeriW: Prioritizing Security in the Next-Gen On-Chain Perp DEX Experience

HONG KONG, March 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Security is the cornerstone of blockchain development. CoinW has operated for eight years without any security incidents. As a result, it has developed deep insights into security and blockchain technology.

DeriW: Prioritizing Security in the Next-Gen On-Chain Perp DEX Experience
DeriW: Prioritizing Security in the Next-Gen On-Chain Perp DEX Experience

CoinW is now leveraging its expertise in the on-chain space with the launch of DeriW, a decentralized derivatives exchange (DEX) prioritizing both security and speed. 

DeriW distinguishes itself from other platforms. It was engineered from the ground up with a focus on both security and performance, with the goal of delivering an exceptional user experience.

Let’s delve into the technical foundations that make this possible.

CoinW Reshapes On-Chain Trading

On March 4, 2025, DeriW—a decentralized perpetual contract trading platform built on Arbitrum—announced its testnet launch. 

Built as an L3 solution on Arbitrum, DeriW inherits its security from Arbitrum’s L2, which ultimately derives its robust security from Ethereum.

This architecture allows DeriW to leverage Ethereum’s safety while achieving ultra-high throughput of up to 80,000 TPS through customizable L3 capabilities.

As an innovative protocol focused on derivatives trading, DeriW balances user experience and asset security through a multi-layered security framework and optimized trading logic.

  • Security: DeriW inherits the foundational security of an L2 and an L1 while utilizing Rollup technology for cross-chain state synchronization. It combines proactive measures with passive defenses, including real-time anomaly detection tools and a bug bounty program to eliminate risks at their source.
  • Gas-Free Transactions: Thanks to L3’s customizability, DeriW achieves zero gas fees while optimizing transaction matching logic to minimize MEV attacks, reduce costs, and enhance fairness.
  • Non-Custodial Design: User funds remain fully self-custodied, eliminating third-party intervention risks. Core contracts are managed via multi-signature wallets with time-lock mechanisms and have undergone audits by authoritative security agencies. All code is open-source for community oversight.
  • Cross-Chain Security: For cross-chain operations—a common vulnerability—DeriW adopts Arbitrum’s mature solutions using Rollup mechanisms for state synchronization. Optimistic validation ensures abnormal transactions can be corrected during a protection period when submitting fund states from L3 to L2.

Smart contracts, fund management, and cross-chain operations are just some of DeriW’s layers of protection. With these measures in place, DeriW delivers the best possible balance of security and performance achievable with today’s technology.

This builds a closed-loop trust system that appeals to all types of users.

Ecosystem Incentives: 6000 DER Points Reward Pool Awaits

Since its inception, DeriW has implemented or planned features such as on-chain open-source governance, multi-signature management, and DAO mechanisms. In the future, community voting will optimize core parameters as DeriW moves toward full decentralization.

To incentivize participation in the DeriW testnet, CoinW is offering generous rewards through the “SUPERNOVA” program. 

Participants can earn up to 6600 DER tokens by completing various tasks. The program features two modules: tiered tasks based on trading volume and holding duration, and basic airdrops for completing initial trades.

Rewards will be distributed to user addresses upon the mainnet launch: 

  • Basic Airdrop (L1): Users completing their first trade of at least 1,000 USDT will receive 100 DER tokens.
  • Tiered Tasks: Rewards are based on cumulative trading volume and holding duration:
    • Level 2: Trade ≥ 100,000 USDT and hold for 1 days to earn 500 DER.
    • Level 3: Trade ≥ 500,000 USDT and hold for 2 days to earn 1,000 DER.
    • Level 4: Trade ≥ 1,000,000 and hold for 4 days to earn 5,000 DER.

Conclusion

CoinW is embracing the inevitable shift towards decentralization in the blockchain space and is committed to driving this change forward.

From its inception, DeriW has been designed with speed, security, and affordability at its core. 

DeriW achieves both high security and an exceptional user experience with comprehensive safeguards such as: 

  • Authoritative audits 
  • Multi-signature management
  • MEV resistance mechanisms, and 
  • Mature cross-chain bridge solutions

After eight years of operation, CoinW’s legacy expands with the launch of DeriW. This innovative platform pioneers fast, secure, and cost-effective on-chain contract trading. DeriW is set to become the premier choice for decentralized derivatives.

Newmark Report: Resilient Singapore Office Demand Backed by Steady Economic Growth

SINGAPORE, March 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Newmark has released a study, led by its Valuation & Advisory and Leasing & Brokerage teams, on the Singapore office leasing market. The report considers broader economic factors and ongoing trends among occupiers, projecting a positive year ahead for office leasing activity and continued moderate rental growth amid limited supply and stable economic growth on the island in 2025.

“Increasing office-using employment and declining office supply should help to better balance the market’s supply and demand over the next 12 months, supported by steady economic growth and export growth,” said Chris Carver, MRICS, MSISV, AAPI, Executive Managing Director and Head of Asia-Pacific Valuation & Advisory. “With a limited development pipeline and sustained need for high-quality office space, we anticipate that rental growth will remain positive in 2025 and occupiers will continue to focus on workplace efficiency and employee experience, driving interest for prime spaces.”

Among the key 2024 takeaways:

  • Office vacancy rose slightly to 9.4% in 2024, largely attributable to the addition of the 1.25-million-square-foot IOI Central Boulevard Towers to the office supplyi.
  • Singapore’s CBD Grade A office rents grew approximately 2% in 2024 and are projected to increase at a moderate pace of around 2% in 2025. This growth is attributed to the limited supply of new office space in the CBD and sustained demand for premium office spacesii.
  • Flight to Quality remains a key driver of office relocations, as businesses prioritize talent acquisition and retention.
  • Service sectors, such as information and communications, financial and professional services, all grew in 2024 and are projected for further growth in 2025, which should in turn drive additional office demandiii.
