Asian Venture Philanthropy Network (AVPN)

Family offices with philanthropic mandates in Asia often struggle to find peers, deal flow, and co-investment structures that match their impact objectives. AVPN, the Asian Venture Philanthropy Network, functions as a membership network connecting over 700 social investors across 43 markets, with family offices explicitly named as a core constituency alongside foundations, corporations, and policy makers. Its Private Wealth Hub, listed as a dedicated impact community, signals a specific focus on engaging private wealth holders as a distinct segment within the broader network.

For a family office exploring impact deployment in Asia, AVPN offers several concrete access points:

• Philanthropic fund vehicles including the Harmony in Diversity Fund, Youth Mental Wellbeing Fund, and AI Opportunity Fund for co-investment alongside other members
• Blended finance structures and impact investing deal flow through the Social Investment in Action platform and ImpactCollab
• Thematic platforms covering Climate Action, Gender Equality, Health Impact, and Youth, enabling alignment with specific SDG-linked priorities
• The AVPN Academy, offering fellowship programs in impact investing and philanthropy, plus training in communicating impact and AI for social investors
• Regional summits and an annual global conference providing access to policymakers and sector leaders across Southeast Asia, South Asia, Northeast Asia, and West Asia

AVPN is CAF International Validated, providing a baseline of nonprofit transparency and accountability that institutional members and family office principals can reference. Membership pricing is not publicly disclosed, and the network is not a fund manager or advisory firm, so families seeking discretionary management or investment execution will need to source those services elsewhere. AVPN is most relevant for family offices that already have or are building a philanthropic or impact mandate in Asia and want peer access, curated deal flow, and knowledge infrastructure rather than a managed service.
