Sources and methods

The news summaries on runwaymonths are compiled from a curated selection of published feeds and indexes of news publications across Asia. These sources focus exclusively on venture capital activity, specifically which company raised funding, from which investor, and at what investment stage. Each automated process monitors for these core details to form the basis of every story.

Every news item is a summary of a single, original publication report. The summarisation and rewriting of the report is performed with automated assistance to extract and clearly state the essential facts of the round. The original reporting publication is always credited as the source. If a pertinent fact, such as a specific valuation or intended use of funds, appears in only one publication, it is included but explicitly noted as being sourced from that single report.

The reference pages on runwaymonths, such as those for a Company or an Investor, are built differently. They are constructed from stable, verified facts that persist across multiple funding rounds or reports. These facts are presented in a structured table format. Each reference page is accompanied by a single, credited photograph sourced from the subject's official materials or a reputable image provider.

Coverage is refreshed continuously as new funding events are reported. The news summaries are published shortly after the original report is identified. The reference pages are updated on a periodic schedule to incorporate new, stable information from recent funding rounds or corporate developments, ensuring the data remains current while maintaining a factual and consistent structure.
