Genesis Alternative Ventures has provided Triangle Group with a $5 million venture debt facility as part of a $15 million financing package announced on 5 August 2026.
The debt sits alongside a $10 million equity seed round led by DSG Consumer Partners, which said the deal is its first investment in live entertainment. Golden Gate Ventures, the Oberoi Family Office and angel investors also joined the equity round.
Singapore-based Triangle funds, routes, produces and promotes tours and festivals across Asia-Pacific. Formerly Creation Collective, the company was established in 2024 and operates in 18 cities across nine countries, with teams in Singapore, Australia, Malaysia and Indonesia.
Triangle said the proceeds will support live touring and festival infrastructure across the region, as well as consumer-facing services including travel and hospitality packages.
The company is led by Chief Executive and Co-Founder Greg Hargrave, formerly Chief Executive of Skilled Group; Co-Founder and Managing Director, Culture and Creative Zaran Vachha, who has worked across Asia's touring and festival circuit; and Chief Financial Officer Matthew Qi-Tao.
Roger Field, formerly President of Live Nation Asia Pacific and Chief Executive of Live Nation Australia and New Zealand, has joined Triangle as Executive Director and Operating Partner after a year as an adviser and investor. Field spent 13 years at Live Nation and, from 2020, was responsible for 11 markets.
Eddy Ng, Partner at Genesis Alternative Ventures, said the firm is backing Triangle as it builds infrastructure for Asia-Pacific's experience economy.
