Who We Are

We are a coalition of innovative Asian digital companies that promotes the democratization of digital technologies across all sectors.

Our mission is to support APAC’s digital growth by helping national governments and policymakers grow their digital economies and reap the benefits of digital technologies through good tech policy. To achieve this, we contribute the voice and perspective of SMEs to tech policy discussions, help SMEs advocate for conducive policies, and provide networking opportunities to help members expand into markets of their interest. We also regularly track tech policy developments in the APAC region and highlight its potential impact on businesses as a service to our members.

We are looking for more like-minded APAC companies in the digital space that recognize the importance of growing the digital economy for local value creation and shared prosperity across Asia.
