  • 🌍 Advancing Asia’s Clean Energy Transition 🌍 ABC Impact Fund II has closed a US$50M investment in Tekoma Energy, joining the HSBC Energy Transition Infrastructure Team to support Tekoma’s next growth phase. This partnership underscores our commitment to scaling impactful, renewable energy solutions in Asia. Commenting on the investment, CIO Shao Ming Tan shared, "The urgency of climate action calls for timely, effective energy solutions, particularly in regions like Asia that are both rapidly developing and highly exposed to climate risks. Japan’s favorable regulatory environment and growing demand for renewable energy make it an attractive market for solar development." Based in Japan, Tekoma Energy is well-positioned to drive Asia’s renewable energy growth, with a proven record of delivering high-quality projects. The platform is building a 400MW+ solar portfolio across developed Asia, with plans to enter the battery energy storage sector and expand into Taiwan and South Korea in the coming year. At ABC Impact, we’re committed to working with visionary partners to accelerate Asia’s energy transition and create long-term, sustainable impact. #ImpactInvesting #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #ClimateAction #SustainableGrowth

  • ***Highlights from ABC Impact’s Investor Day: Driving Asia’s Next Chapter*** It was a privilege to bring together our partners, investors, and stakeholders for an inspiring day of conversations around the future of impact investing in Asia. Our theme this year—Driving Asia’s Next Chapter—centered on both the immense potential and the responsibilities we share in fostering sustainable growth across the region. We heard firsthand from our founders at Aye Finance Pvt. Ltd, Vedantu, and Winnow who shared the milestones and challenges shaping their work in #financialinclusion, #education, and #foodwaste. Their insights reminded us of the powerful change that can happen when innovative solutions meet real needs. Our team also shared perspectives on the outlook for impact in Asia, highlighting emerging opportunities in #climate resilience and #healthcare. These discussions underscored our shared commitment to helping Asia’s #communities thrive and to addressing critical challenges through collaborative, #impact-driven growth. A key highlight of the day was the launch of our impact study, Voices from the Portfolio, in collaboration with Dalberg. This study amplifies the voices of those directly impacted by our work, offering valuable insights into the real-world outcomes of our investments in health, education, and financial services. Thank you to everyone who joined us, contributed ideas, and helped shape our path forward. We look forward to building a more sustainable and inclusive future together. #InvestorDay #ImpactInvesting #Asia #Sustainability #SocialImpact #ABCImpact Vedantu Aye Finance Pvt.

    At ABC Impact, we’re committed to going beyond metrics to understand the real-world effects of our work. Voices from the Portfolio, an impact study developed in collaboration with Dalberg, seeks to do that - the study uncovers the voices of those who are directly impacted by our investments. This study reflects a shared dedication to listening to the end-user—the families, communities, and individuals whose lives are shaped by our portfolio companies. Through surveys, interviews, and conversations with over 1,800 users, we gathered insights from five of our portfolio companies delivering health, education, and financial services: Chongho Bridge, Dami & Xiaomi, Nha Khoa Kim - Kim Dental, HCAH India, and Vedantu. The full report can be explored here: https://lnkd.in/gs_tBaus Voices from the Portfolio combines hard data with personal stories, highlighting the transformations taking place on the ground. It’s a powerful reminder that behind every statistic are lives changed, and it strengthens our commitment to transparency and accountability. For us, impact is not just about numbers; it’s about measurable, meaningful change. Why did we commission this study? Because if we’re going to drive real change, we must validate our results—not just for ourselves but for all of you—our partners, investors, and stakeholders. Impact is about measurable outcomes that create a better, more sustainable world. As we look to the future, Voices from the Portfolio underscores the importance of proving our impact and building a sustainable future, together. #ImpactInvesting #SocialImpact #VoicesFromThePortfolio #Asia
