Evidence snapshot for Yangon
Phandeeyar — Myanmar's First Equity-Taking Startup Accelerator and What the Coup Did to It documents Yangon as home to an innovation lab founded in 2014 that ran Myanmar's first equity-taking startup accelerator from September 2016 onwards, investing US$25,000 per startup across three cohorts (6 startups in cohort one in 2016, 7 in cohort two in 2017, and 5 in cohort three by February 2019). The 2021 military coup severely disrupted the Yangon tech ecosystem; IRS filings show the organization's revenue fell approximately 76% in the coup year, and no cohort after February 2019 could be evidenced. The evidence does not quantify broader Yangon digital-inclusion outcomes beyond Phandeeyar itself.
