About Holdex
We are Holdex, a web3 startup venture studio headquartered in Hong Kong. Since 2016, we have built and launched dozens of web3 products. Our portfolio startups speak for themselves.
Holdex Mission
Over 2 billion adults —about 25% of the worldwide population—face challenges in accessing banking services, which limits their ability to work remotely and participate in the shared economy. Alongside banking crises , high inflation rates, and political hostility, it is crucial to address the financial inclusivity issue.
Therefore, our mission is to launch responsible and sustainable applications that promote inclusivity and financial freedom.
Our Values
We are united by these core values as a diverse team of passionate professionals.
Dream Big
Dreaming big and setting ambitious goals is essential to challenge the status quo. Otherwise, it's not worth it.
Be Proactive
Proactively take responsibility and bring solutions.
Do the Right Thing
Do the right thing by asking yourself: What is our biggest obstacle? If we do the wrong thing, we waste our time.
Keep it Simple
Keep things simple for others to save time and energy. We have complex problems to solve.
Create Synergy
Synergies and have an “everyone can win” attitude. Seek first to understand, then to be understood.
How We Work

We provide:
- Shared resources and domain knowledge
- Practical expertise
