About Us

About Lanceum

Lanceum is an independent publication covering AI and technology across Asia, with a particular focus on Southeast Asia — the world's fastest-growing tech region.

We believe the next chapter of the global technology story is being written in Asia, and it deserves coverage that matches its ambition. From the AI labs of Singapore and Tokyo to the startup ecosystems of Jakarta and Bangalore, we go beyond headlines to explain what matters and why.

What We Cover

Our five editorial pillars:

News

Breaking developments in AI, tech policy, and industry across the region.

Analysis

Deep dives into the trends, dynamics, and decisions shaping Asia's tech future.

Brief

Concise updates for busy readers who need to stay informed.

Startups

Profiles of the companies and founders building the next generation of Asian tech.

Research

Highlights from Asia's AI labs, universities, and research institutions.

Our Approach

We are committed to rigorous, independent journalism. We don't chase hype cycles or publish press releases as news. Every story we publish is designed to help our readers understand the forces shaping technology in the world's most dynamic region.
