Our Approach

Developing lasting ways to prosper.

We approach change with local knowledge, innovative partnerships and ideas that redefine what’s possible for Alaska. Together we’re moving towards a more just and prosperous future.

Generating momentum.

We offer community leaders the resources they need to create lasting change. Through unconventional partnerships, we connect doers with experts and the funding necessary to activate their ideas.

It’s all about shifting resources so that communities have the tools and support to develop and nurture bold sustainable solutions. At Alaska Venture Fund we act as connectors, backing everyone who believes in Alaska’s future.

Together for greater impact.

Systemic change demands cross-sector innovation, joint investment, and the talent and ideas of diverse communities. We work at the intersection of what matters most in Alaska today: climate change, Indigenous sovereignty, the prosperity of all peoples, and the health of our lands and waters. The goal is always to create solutions with broad-based impact, building powerful coalitions across communities and cultures.
