If you're looking for exposure to the next wave of technological disruption but don't want to put all your eggs in one basket, tech-focused ETFs on the ASX could be the perfect solution.

From artificial intelligence and cloud computing to Asian innovation and Aussie software success stories, these funds give investors access to diversified slices of the global tech pie.

With that in mind, here are three ASX tech ETFs that could deliver serious upside potential over the next decade and beyond.

Betashares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)

First up is the Betashares Asia Technology Tigers ETF. While many investors tend to focus on the US when it comes to tech, Asia is home to some of the most dynamic and fast-growing technology giants in the world.

This ASX ETF gives you exposure to 50 of the region's leading tech names. This includes Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE: TSM), Tencent Holdings (HKG: 0700), and Alibaba Group (NYSE: BABA).

Many of these companies are at the centre of global supply chains in semiconductors, e-commerce, and digital services. And crucially, valuations in the region remain very reasonable. So, for investors seeking a contrarian growth opportunity, this fund might be a compelling long-term pick.

BetaShares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF (ASX: ATEC)

If you'd prefer to back local innovation, the BetaShares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF offers a homegrown tech option. This ASX tech ETF tracks a basket of Aussie-listed tech companies, including names like Xero Ltd (ASX: XRO), WiseTech Global Ltd (ASX: WTC), NextDC Ltd (ASX: NXT), Pro Medicus Ltd (ASX: PME), and Life360 Inc (ASX: 360).

These are businesses with strong recurring revenues, scalable platforms, and global ambitions. For those who believe in the long-term growth story of local software, cloud, and data centre businesses, the BetaShares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF could be a smart way to gain diversified exposure. Betashares recently named it as one to consider buying.

Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF (ASX: NDQ)

Finally, it is impossible to talk tech without mentioning the Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF. This fund gives investors direct access to the top 100 non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq exchange. That includes many of the world's most dominant and innovative tech businesses, such as Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), and NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA).

These are global platforms driving advancements in artificial intelligence, cloud infrastructure, and digital productivity. And despite their vast size, many continue to deliver strong revenue growth and wide margins.

All in all, they look well-positioned to drive the Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF higher and higher over the next decade and beyond.
