A major milestone in 2025
We announced the launch of DOMiNO Uzbekistan, the country’s first international venture capital fund, with a target size of USD 20 million, connecting local innovation with global capital.
Across borders and ecosystems
We visited 3 continents, 15+ countries, and took part in 50+ events, expanding our global collaboration.
