NF Ventures

NextForge Ventures operates as a global venture fund with its headquarters in the Asia-Pacific region, providing strategic capital and hands-on support to exceptional founders and diverse teams. The firm leverages a venture studio model, combining financial investment with operational assistance to scale innovative solutions that address societal challenges. While sector-agnostic, NextForge focuses on emerging technologies in FinTech, AI, Healthcare, and Robotics.

The fund was established by Managing Partners Nap Chan and Chrissy Huang, two accomplished leaders with deep expertise in technology, finance, and entrepreneurship. Their combined experience in launching high-growth products, managing significant fundraising, and executing M&A deals informs their approach to nurturing early-stage companies. This background provided the impetus to create a firm dedicated to empowering diverse entrepreneurs.

NextForge Ventures targets founders, with a particular emphasis on female founders, who are developing technology with the potential for meaningful societal impact. The firm aims to build a global support system for these entrepreneurs, helping them scale from Asia-Pacific markets to an international presence. Their vision is to empower the next generation of innovative startups through strategic investment and mentorship.
