Description
Everest Ventures Group (EVG) is a prominent Hong Kong-based venture studio and investment firm specializing in the digital asset and blockchain technology sectors.

Their overarching mission is to accelerate the mass adoption of Web3 technologies, positioning themselves as a key player in the evolving decentralized landscape.
The firm's investment strategy is highly focused on early-stage opportunities across the entire Web3 ecosystem. EVG actively seeks out innovative projects in areas such as decentralized finance (DeFi), GameFi, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), metaverse applications, and core blockchain infrastructure. As a venture studio, EVG often provides more than just capital, offering significant operational support, strategic guidance, and access to a robust network, which is particularly valuable for nascent blockchain startups. Their global outlook ensures they invest in projects worldwide, not just within Asia.
EVG has built an extensive portfolio, having invested in over 100 Web3 projects since its inception. This broad engagement underscores their commitment to fostering diverse innovations within the space. Their strategic early investments have yielded significant results, with their portfolio companies collectively raising over $100 million in subsequent funding rounds from other investors.
