Venture Speaks: Civil Society Program at the 59th ADB Annual Meeting

Venture for Fund Raising was honored to take the stage at the 59th ADB Annual Meeting in Samarkand last May 5, 2026! Moderating the session "Innovative Financing to Scale Up Community-Led Solutions," we joined forces with HANIWAI, Habitat for Humanity, and the ADB to bridge the gap between financial theory and grassroots action. Together, we provided practical applications and key recommendations on how to explore community-based philanthropy, government and private sector partnerships, and grassroots mobilization to access local capital and promote financial sustainability.
