Magrathea
Magrathea is where we go looking for questions — and answers — in places most organisations haven’t even looked yet.
We specialise in supporting and scaling multi-year transformation programs in partnership with educational institutions, government, and private industry.
Think of it as an ecosystem foundry: a melting pot where new ideas, regional challenges, international expertise, and local capability collide to create something bigger than any single organisation could build alone.
A new kind of expansion engine for ASEAN
Magrathea is the newest arm of The Improbability Company, already operating in Vietnam to bring together:
- international keynote speakers
- global investors
- universities and research centres
- accelerators and innovation programs
- government representatives
- private industry leaders
We help these groups align around shared problems, shared opportunities, and shared actions that reshape the trajectory of a city or region.
Our role is to orchestrate, connect, translate, and accelerate — turning fragmented efforts into a coordinated, investable ecosystem.
Global networks, local depth
We leverage a cross-APAC network built through years of work in Australia, Singapore, and Vietnam — a network that includes:
Magrathea focuses on ASEAN regional growth, ensuring every initiative aligns with existing masterplans, economic strategies, and future-city development programs.
We adapt proven models from Australia and Singapore — programs that have already delivered measurable outcomes — into formats that fit local cultures, priorities, and economic realities.
A complete solution for building ecosystems
Magrathea is not a consulting arm. It is an execution engine.
We help regions:
- define high-value problems worth solving
- attract international partners and investors
- showcase local strengths on the global stage
- build infrastructure for entrepreneurship and innovation
- launch accelerators, conferences, and market-entry pathways
- bridge the gap between local ambition and global opportunity
Our approach creates lasting capability, not temporary activity.
Whether the goal is to grow a startup ecosystem, attract international investment, build a climate-tech corridor, or turn a city into an innovation hub, Magrathea provides the scaffolding, partnerships, and operational force to make it real.
The future we’re building
Project Cần Thơ 2030
Magrathea’s first major initiative is underway in Cần Thơ, Vietnam — a multi-stakeholder project designed to connect the Mekong Delta with international innovation, education, and investment networks.
