AI platform predicting employee attrition risk for BPOs and HR teams

JG Digital Equity Ventures (JGDEV) is the corporate venture capital arm of JG Summit Holdings, one of the Philippines' largest diversified conglomerates, spanning food, real estate, air transportation, banking, and petrochemicals. It was launched in 2019 to formalize the group's approach to digital and startup investment. Its confirmed portfolio spans Series A/B-stage Philippine and regional technology companies, including sari-sari store enabler GrowSari, consumer lending platform Cashalo, receipt-scanning rewards platform Snapcart, and Philippine digital bank GoTyme Bank (via a stake in parent Tyme Group). It has also backed India-based HR technology platform Darwinbox, reflecting a mandate broader than the Philippines alone.

Future Now Ventures is an independent, Makati-based early and growth-stage venture capital firm founded in 2014 by John Orrock. It has made 32 investments to date, with one portfolio company reaching IPO and four acquired — a track record that predates much of the Philippines' recent startup-funding wave. Confirmed portfolio includes AutoDeal, an online car marketplace; HR and payroll platform Salarium, which the firm backed in 2016 (Salarium later shut down in 2023, a real, honestly-disclosed outcome rather than an ongoing success); recruitment platform Kalibrr; and flexible workspace marketplace FlySpaces.
