Description

Since 2002, Gobi has overseen nearly US$2 billion AUM across more than 20 funds, and its team of 80+ people now manages a portfolio of over 400 companies from 16 locations. Over the last two decades, the firm has supported emerging ecosystems and built a proven track record of 75 exits and counting. This has resulted in deep strategic partnerships with the most prominent sovereign wealth funds, financial institutions, corporate investors, and family offices in Asia.

Gobi's edge lies in identifying hidden tectonic movements before they become apparent. From pioneering TaqwaTech for two billion Muslims, to advancing the circular economy, to promoting gender-diverse leadership, Gobi backs the trends that are reshaping societies. Some portfolio companies have included: AIFT, Airwallex, Amber (NASDAQ:AMBR), Brite Semiconductor (688691.SS), Carsome, CloudEats, PolicyStreet, PriceOye, Sandbox VR, Sastaticket, SkyeChip, Synagistics (2562.HK), Tuniu (NASDAQ:TOUR), Urban Revivo, WaveOptics (Acq. by NYSE:SNAP), and Xingyun Group’s PoliBeli (NASDAQ:PLBL).

Today, Gobi is also forging new partnerships with universities and institutions of higher education, bridging world-class research in academia with the private markets and bringing deep technology breakthroughs to commercialisation. It believes that between its GUIDE accelerator programs and early stage venture funds, it can help nurture these university spinoffs to become Asia's next generation of unicorns. Where others see risk, Gobi sees opportunity.
