There is a lack of access to good work in Asia's under-served communities
THIS CONTRIBUTES TO A CYCLE OF EXTREME POVERTY
Most investment goes to already well developed urban areas, leaving rural communities under-served in their business ventures. This perpetuates a cycle of extreme poverty and mass migration as leaders leave their rural communities, taking their skills, ideas and investment with them.
This cycle can be broken.
We believe it’s time to break the cycle. We do this by investing in local leaders to create businesses, jobs and solutions for their rural communities. We are going where investors haven’t previously gone, to under-served remote communities across Asia where we find entrepreneurial, spirited leaders who know what their communities need to thrive. We invest in their solutions to enable job creation.
