The Astana Financial Services Authority (AFSA) has issued this Consultation Paper to seek suggestions from the market on the Proposed introduction of the AIFC Venture Studio Framework and respective amendments to the AIFC Fees Rules.

We invite comments from interested stakeholders.

Venture Studio is an organisational framework for creating and launching new startup ventures. Unlike traditional venture capital firms that primarily invest in existing startups, venture studios actively conceive, develop, and launch their own startup ideas from scratch.

The deadline for providing comments on the proposed framework is 17 May 2024. Once we receive your comments, we shall consider if any refinements are required to this proposal.

We prefer to receive comments by email at [email protected]
