Archipelago VC - AVC

Archipelago VC (AVC) is a Southeast Asia focused early stage impact venture fund backing scalable companies that deliver strong returns and measurable positive outcomes.

Born out of the Bali Investment Club (BIC), one of the region’s most active impact angel networks, AVC builds on a proven track record of identifying exceptional founders and supporting them with capital, expertise, and hands on venture building.

We invest from Pre Seed to Series A across Southeast Asia with a focus on high growth, impact driven businesses in climate tech, circular economy, waste innovation, inclusive economic growth, and essential services. Our approach goes beyond funding as our team works directly with founders to accelerate growth, unlock partnerships, and strengthen operational foundations.

A defining strength of AVC is our cross pollination strategy, where portfolio companies collaborate, support each other, and share market insights to multiply their impact. Through BIC’s existing eight investments, we have already built one of the region’s most comprehensive early stage waste and circularity ecosystems, and AVC expands this platform across the broader SEA region.

We believe impact and profit amplify each other. Our investment strategy is anchored in ambitious and data driven goals such as recovering five hundred thousand tonnes of waste, avoiding seven hundred fifty thousand tonnes of CO2 emissions, and generating one hundred sixty nine million US dollars in income for the Bottom of the Pyramid through job creation and increased earnings for low income communities, especially women and micro entrepreneurs.
