The Asian Business Angel Forum (ABAF) is an independent, non-profit cooperative established in 2008 to promote the establishment, development and collaboration of organised Angel investor communities across all Asian and Australasian countries. It is engendered by the reality that Asia is not the USA, nor Europe and that our countries and communities must develop and champion investment and business models that are most appropriate for our societies and markets.
ABAF champions professional and ethical conduct as an essential basis for the practice of Angel investing.
The primary purpose of ABAF is to facilitate an eponymous annual event that offers Angel investors from every country in the region the opportunity to exchange views, share practices, learn from each other, help each other and promote the relationships that are the foundations for successful cross-border syndication.
At its core, ABAF is a collective of highly motivated individuals, passionate about Angel investing and the impact this asset class can have on the future of our communities.
ABAF pursues a regional Angel investor community that through professionalism and collaboration delivers superior market access for the investors and for their portfolio companies.
ABAF promotes these shared values and behaviours:

To be the most active and effective early-stage investor community in the region, enabling Angel investors to realise substantial economic and social returns for themselves, the founders they support and the communities in which they live. This will be facilitated by promoting the development of high-value, ethical businesses which exploit technology to realise sustainable, scalable and valuable benefits to the region.
ABAF is committed to providing a professional and collegiate environment and experience for all members and for all participants at ABAF events. By combining this culture with performance ABAF will realise its objectives which, in turn, will underpin the growth and sustainability of the collaboration through member attraction, member retention and measurable impact to benefit the communities of our region.
Each year ABAF celebrates the Angel pioneers in the host country and promotes the pan-Asia ecosystem in the cross-border reality that is the Asian Century.
