JYT Growth Capital Pte. Ltd. keeps a small, deliberate seed-stage practice at its Yunnan Drive plot in 3 Yunnan Drive 1, Singapore - 638272, Singapore (SG). We screen first cheques with the patience of a nursery staff, tending each batch of founders through the long months between the first transfer and the next round. Every memo, tranche and portfolio report is handled by the same desk that signed the term sheet.

Capital administration for a seed fund is not a single act. It is a season of small, repeatable tasks: writing the memo that justifies a cheque, splitting that cheque into milestone tranches, sitting with founders as the work turns difficult, reporting to the partners, keeping the cap table honest, and judging when a company is ready for the next round. JYT Growth Capital Pte. Ltd. runs all six from the plot office at 3 Yunnan Drive 1, Singapore - 638272, Singapore (SG). Each row below is linked to the fuller service page, where the mechanics are set out in detail.
Before any transfer leaves the account, a founder sits with our desk and builds a screening memo: the problem, the early evidence, the honest risks and the terms we think the market will bear. We write the memo together so the record belongs to the company as much as to the fund.
Read the screening desk →Cheques are released against milestones that the founder can actually reach. We map the tranches, agree the evidence that unlocks each one, and keep the schedule visible so nobody is guessing when the next instalment is due.
Read the tranche planner →A standing half hour every month, kept by the same person, so the founder never has to explain the company from scratch. Check-in rounds catch the quiet problems before they become reporting problems.
Read the check-in rhythm →One reporting cycle at a time, on a fixed calendar, with a template that stays the same quarter to quarter. Partners receive a clean pack; founders spend hours, not days, on it.
Read the report cycle →We reconcile the register against signed documents every time a grant, transfer or note conversion lands. A cap table that is right before the next round saves months of diligence afterwards.
Read the cap table review →When a company starts to look ready for its next round, we run a readiness check against the things lead investors ask for: clean records, a coherent data room, a defensible plan and a founder who can tell the story without notes.
Read the readiness check →Each of these six rows is a real desk with a named owner at JYT Growth Capital Pte. Ltd., not a brochure line. A founder who signs with us meets the person who will write the memo, the person who will release the tranche, and the person who will sit in the monthly check-in, and those three people usually turn out to be the same two colleagues. That is deliberate. Seed-stage capital is too small a business for handoffs to be invisible, and too fragile for the founder to feel passed around. The plot office on Yunnan Drive is built around a short bench: the fund manager, the administrator and the analyst sit within a few steps of one another, and the seed tray above the rail holds the batch history in plain sight.
We also believe a seed fund should be able to explain itself in a single page. That is why the six rows are numbered with irregular letter marks rather than a tidy sequence: each mark recalls a different founder in the current batch, and no two rows look alike because no two companies are at the same stage. Some are still in their first tranche. Some are halfway to the next round. A few are quietly waiting for the season to turn. The rail is meant to show that variety honestly, so a new founder can see exactly where the practice would place them.
Why a nursery, and why a plot
A first cheque is the easiest part of a seed relationship to describe and the hardest part to get right. The money moves in a day; the company takes years. JYT Growth Capital Pte. Ltd. was set up around that simple observation, and the way we work follows from it. We keep a small batch, we visit the work often, and we keep the same people at the same bench so the founder never has to start the story again with a stranger.
The sector we know best
Most of the companies we work with sit in computer systems design and closely related professional, scientific and technical services. These businesses rarely look like the consumer products that dominate seed-stage headlines. They sell to a small number of demanding clients, they win work through live pilots rather than app downloads, and their first revenue often arrives as a contract rather than a subscription. That shape of business changes what a seed fund should ask for.
It means we care about named buyers, signed scopes of work and the ability to price engineering honestly. It means a founder who can deliver a difficult integration on time is worth more to us than a founder with a beautiful deck. It also means the reporting has to be steady, because a single delayed contract can move a whole quarter. The services page sets out how each of the six desks handles that reality, from the screening memo to the follow-on readiness check.
How the year runs
We describe the year in four working seasons, because a calendar that matches the work is easier for a founder to keep. The naming is ours, but the rhythm is ordinary: prepare, release, tend, review.
The first season is preparation. This is where the screening memo desks do their work, and where a founder and the desk decide together whether a cheque makes sense. The second season is release, when milestone tranche planning turns the decision into a schedule and the first instalment leaves the account. The third season is the long middle, carried by founder check-in rounds and portfolio report cycles, where most of the real value of a seed relationship is built. The fourth season is review, where cap table reviews keep the record honest and the follow-on readiness checks decide whether the company is ready for the next round.
Four working principles
We write things down. Every screening memo, tranche schedule and check-in note lives in one place. If a decision is challenged a year later, the reasoning is there to read. We keep the bench short. The fund manager, the administrator and the analyst sit within a few steps of one another, so a founder does not have to repeat the story to a new face. We say no early. If the practice is not a fit, we tell the founder within two weeks rather than let an enquiry drift. We do not sell. There is no product to upsell and no list to rent; the only thing we offer is the administration itself.
These principles sound modest, and they are meant to. A seed fund at this scale does not need a grand theory of venture capital. It needs to be reliable, readable and honest about what it can do. The plot office on Yunnan Drive exists to make that reliability visible: the batch rail, the bench and the trellis are all working parts of the same small room, where the records are kept and the conversations happen.
Visiting the plot office
The office at 3 Yunnan Drive 1, Singapore - 638272, Singapore (SG) is a small working space rather than a corporate lobby. We meet founders by appointment, usually on weekday mornings, and we ask visitors to write ahead so a colleague can meet them at the gate. If travel is difficult, we are equally happy to hold the first conversation by video. Whichever route a founder takes, the same desk reads the memo, schedules the tranche and keeps the check-in, which is the whole point of keeping the practice deliberately small.
The office hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 18:00 Singapore time. Applications, press questions and privacy requests all go to sales@jytgrowth.mom, and the telephone number on every page is +14722464473. We do not route enquiries through a call centre, and we do not ask a founder to fill in a long form before a human reads the note.
If you would like to understand the six services in more detail, the services page sets out each desk in turn. If you already have a company and want to begin, the contact page has a short form and the direct details.
