About us
SEED Ventures (Social, Entrepreneurship, and Equity Development) was established in 2009. We are social impact ecosystem developers and impact investors. Our work is dedicated to nurturing an ecosystem where social entrepreneurs can thrive, and the social impact of traditional entrepreneurship can be enhanced and scaled. We work with the public, development, and private sector organisations to develop financial mechanisms that maximize impact creation. We want to alleviate socio-economic challenges by building the next generation of change-makers; empower youth and women; and include and embrace the excluded. For each of our portfolios, we have developed solutions using a four-lensed framework ensuring there is transformational change at an individual, community, institutional, and systemic level. We create enabling ecosystems through research, policy advocacy, developing entrepreneurial capacity, encouraging innovation, linking to markets, and creating access to finance through fund management and impact investment.

According to Jehan Ara, former President of the Pakistan Software Houses Association (P@SHA), the representation of women in the IT industry has grown to 22% from just 12% over the past five years. While this progress is encouraging, there remains a significant need to further bridge the gender gap in this field. In response to this challenge, SEED Ventures is making a tangible impact through its Imarah programme. We have recently launched the second cohort of our IT Skill Development course, specifically designed for the women of Karachi's Mehran Town. By equipping them with essential IT skills, Imarah empowers these women to become future leaders in the industry, advancing gender diversity and fostering a more equitable IT landscape.
