Our Vision
Who We Are
Alpha Plus Ventures Limited (Alpha Plus), founded in 2021 A.D., positions itself as a distinguished SEBON-regulated SIF licensed investment fund with a dedicated focus on Nepal. Our mission is to facilitate the private placement of equity across diverse industries, supporting fundamentally robust companies at every stage of their lifecycle.
At Alpha Plus, our investment philosophy is rooted in strategic diversification across key sectors including renewable energy, hospitality, agriculture, manufacturing, Information communication and technology sector among others. We allocate capital to sectors that not only demonstrate promise but also contribute significantly to enhance Nepal's economic output.
A cornerstone of our approach is a commitment to creating widespread benefits for the public. We meticulously select sectors and companies that not only present compelling investment opportunities but also align with our broader mission of fostering economic prosperity. Our funds are predominantly directed towards later-stage investments in well-established companies, characterized by robust fundamentals and promising growth trajectories.
Presently, we observe a landscape where the array of public investment opportunities available to the Nepalese public is somewhat constrained. This hampers the potential for diversification, a key ingredient for a resilient and thriving investment portfolio. At Alpha Plus, we are dedicated to pioneering positive change and unlocking new avenues for our investors and the general public, fostering a dynamic and diversified investment ecosystem.
Our Mission
At Alpha Plus, our mission is to drive economic growth and development in Nepal by investing in fundamentally strong companies across a variety of industries. By providing financial and operational expertise, as well as capital and support, we aim to help these companies grow, improve efficiency, and optimize their capital structures. Our ultimate goal is to bring these companies to public markets and provide Nepalese investors with a wider range of investment options, ultimately fostering a system for optimal resource allocation in the economy.
