Introduction |
The Asian Venture Philanthropy Network (AVPN) is building a vibrant and high impact
venture philanthropy community across the Asia Pacific region. AVPN has more than
130 members from over 20 countries. See the Member Directory and listing of Events
at www.avpn.asia.
We promote venture philanthropy in the broader philanthropic and social investment
communities and provide specific networking and learning services to meet the needs
of our members.
AVPN is a non-profit organisation based in Singapore with membership across the
Asian region. We are supported by grant funding, sponsors and partner organisations.
We are building a cross-sector network bringing together organisations and
individuals from finance, business and the social sector. Our members include venture
philanthropy organisations as practicing members and associate members that bring
different networks, expertise and experience.
Associate Members include private equity managers, private banks, wealth
managers, other financial services organisations, professional service firms, family
businesses, corporations through their CSR activities, foundations, universities and
government related entities.
We are the hub for news and events focused on venture philanthropy to develop
shared learning and best practices. Through our Knowledge Centre we will be
developing practitioner oriented resources to help scale the practice of venture
philanthropy across Asia.
Please visit www.avpn.asia to learn more and contact us at info@avpn.asia if you

We encourage you to engage with us and support our field building activities through
sponsorship, grants, donations, or joining as a member or partner organisation. |
