Gaja Ventures — AI agents for Hong Kong and Italy

AI agents, built
between Hong Kong
and Italy.

Gaja Ventures is an Agentic AI startup based in Hong Kong, AI-native in its own organization. We build products that automate workflows and reshape how businesses, consumers, and producers interact — starting in the Italian and Asian markets.

Gaja Ventures Limited is an ElevenLabs Startup Grants recipient.

A bridge between two markets we know well.

Our founders bring native fluency in both regions. We design products with that dual perspective at the core, rather than as an afterthought.

Hong Kong & Greater China

Incorporated and operating from Hong Kong, we tap into the city's role as a launchpad for Greater China and Asia — a fast-moving environment for AI agent deployment, regional partnerships, and cross-border opportunities across services, commerce, and trade.

Italy & Europe

With deep roots in Italy, we focus on building agentic AI products genuinely tailored to Italian language, culture, and economic structure — from voice agents for everyday users to platforms automating workflows for Italy's cooperative and small-business ecosystem.

Three ventures. From live products to what's next.

An AI voice companion, an Italian-language voice receptionist, and a platform for community buying — built around everyday needs in our home markets.

In ideation phase

GAS 2.0 — solidarity buying, made simple.

GAS 2.0 turns Italy's grassroots food-buying groups — families pooling orders to buy bio and local from small farmers — into a Glovo-simple mobile experience. No more spreadsheets, cash envelopes, or WhatsApp chaos for the volunteers running them. We don't replace these communities: we plug into them, keeping their identity, producers, and trust intact while removing the volunteer burnout that's stopping them from scaling. On the supply side, we give small producers AI-powered analytics on demand, pricing, and seasonality — turning fragmented community orders into the kind of insight only the largest food retailers have today.
