ADB Ventures is the venture-investment facility of the Asian Development Bank (ADB), a multilateral development bank founded in 1966 and headquartered at 6 ADB Avenue, Mandaluyong City, Metro Manila — meaning ADB Ventures itself is genuinely Philippine-based, unlike most other names on this list. It was launched in 2020 to "scale technology solutions for impact in Asia and the Pacific," positioning itself as an ImpactTech investment platform rather than a conventional commercial VC fund. It operates alongside related ADB initiatives such as the SEEK Fund (which offers seed funding of up to roughly US$400,000) and NextFin Asia.
The firm's own portfolio/investments page (adbventures.com) currently redirects to a lapsed-domain marketplace listing rather than a live site, and adb.org itself blocks automated access — so specific named investee companies could not be independently confirmed for this profile via any accessible source this session. Its LinkedIn profile states current geographic activity concentrated in Southeast Asia (Thailand, Indonesia) and Japan, within its broader Asia-Pacific mandate.
