Nvsion, a Malaysia-based deeptech startup, announced last Friday it has successfully completed a “multi-million ringgit seed round” with Cambrian Fund as its sole investor.
The firm said in a statement that the funding will be deployed to accelerate Nvsion’s growth across several key areas, including advancing its product development and rollout, recruiting top-tier talent, and expanding its customer base.
The company sees significant opportunities to extend its platform into other advanced manufacturing sectors where precision and throughput are critical, such as advanced electronics, automotive, and medical devices.
Its core technology is its proprietary Synthia Vision AI Platform, which uses a hybrid of artificial intelligence (AI) and rule-based algorithms for high-speed industrial applications.
“Securing this first round of funding is a defining moment for Nvsion,
“We are honored to welcome Cambrian Fund as our first investor,” said Jeffrey Chung Wai Loong, the firm’s Founder and Managing Director.
“Their backing not only validates our vision and technology but also gives us access to world-class expertise and networks,
“With their support, we are confident in our ability to deliver greater innovation, expand our world-class customer base, and contribute to Malaysia’s emergence as a leader in advanced manufacturing,” he added.
The investment also aligns with Cambrian Fund’s strategy to back technology companies in Southeast Asia with exceptional founders and a clear path to market leadership.
“We launched Cambrian Fund to back visionary founders building the next generation of global technology leaders,” said Kenneth Tan, Chief Executive Officer of Southern Capital Group, the manager of Cambrian Fund.
“We are proud and excited to partner with Jeffrey and his team. Nvsion’s advanced, software- first approach to machine vision is set to make a significant impact in a critical and rapidly growing part of the Industrial 4.0 landscape,
“We are confident in their potential to scale and become a market leader, and we look forward to supporting them on their transformative journey,” he added.
Founded in February, 2025, Nvsion is specializing in AI-powered automated optical inspection (AOI) solutions.
The startup develops advanced AOI solutions that are critical for ensuring high precision, improving quality, and increasing efficiency in the outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) and electronics manufacturing services (EMS) segments.
With its focus on the semiconductor sector, Cambrian Fund is managed by Southern Capital Group with anchor investors Khazanah Nasional, through its Dana Impak fund and the co-founders of ViTrox Corp Bhd.
