## About

Based in Singapore and founded in 2023, Rize Pte. Ltd., doing business as Rize, operates a technology platform for rice cultivation. Founded by Dhruv Sawhney, the company supports farmers through agronomic guidance, financing, farmer onboarding, sustainability monitoring, and market-access services. Rize operates across rice-producing regions in Southeast Asia and works with stakeholders across the agricultural value chain to facilitate the adoption of cultivation practices such as alternate wetting and drying (AWD), direct seeded rice (DSR), and soil management programs. 
In July 2026, the company raised USD 31 million in Series B funding co-led by BNP Paribas REIM, Rockefeller Foundation, Temasek Holdings, and Breakthrough Energy Ventures, with participation from United Overseas Bank, Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam, and Temasek Foundation.
