True Global Ventures Celebrates Two Major Milestones in Just 72 Hours in the U.S. Market

True Global Ventures Celebrates Major Milestones in the U.S.

In a remarkable display of its strategic foresight and commitment to innovation, True Global Ventures (TGV) has recently achieved two significant milestones in the U.S. market within just 72 hours. These accomplishments highlight the firm's dedication to supporting visionary entrepreneurs who are shaping the future of finance and digital assets.

Acquisition of Forge Global

The first major milestone comes with the announcement that the Charles Schwab Corporation has agreed to acquire Forge Global for approximately $660 million. This acquisition values Forge at around $45 per share and underscores the company's innovative digital infrastructure, which facilitates liquidity in the private equity and venture capital sectors. Forge Global's platform connects investors, shareholders, and private companies within one of the globe's largest and fastest-growing secondary market ecosystems.

Dušan Stojanović, the founder of TGV, stated, “Moments like these remind us why we invest for the long term. Forge has redefined how liquidity is created and managed in private markets. The acquisition by Charles Schwab reflects the increasing convergence between traditional finance and private market ventures, a space TGV has invested in since its inception. We are confident that Forge will continue to drive innovation in areas such as the tokenization of private company shares and funds!”

Kelly Rodrigues, CEO of Forge Global, added, “This partnership with Charles Schwab marks a turning point for private markets. Forge was founded to democratize access to investments in private companies, and collaborating with one of the world's most prestigious financial institutions will accelerate this mission considerably. We are proud to have long-term partners like TGV who have believed in this vision from the outset.”

Animoca Brands’ Nasdaq Listing

The second landmark event involves Animoca Brands, which has proposed a merger with Currenc Group Inc. (Nasdaq CURR). Through this merger, Animoca shareholders would own about 95% of the combined entity, paving the way for a Nasdaq-listed company by the second half of 2026. Animoca Brands is known for developing foundational layers of digital ownership rights. The partnership with Currenc is poised to create significant synergies in cross-border payments, stablecoins, and tokenized digital assets — effectively marrying Web3 innovation with next-generation financial infrastructure.

Yat Siu, co-founder and Executive Chairman of Animoca Brands, commented, “The Nasdaq listing through Currenc represents a significant step towards the mainstream acceptance of digital assets and tokenization. This will allow us to make the benefits of digital ownership — from gaming and education to finance and beyond — accessible to an even broader audience.” He further stated, “Our collaboration with Currenc reflects our shared values, as both companies are redefining how value is transferred globally. Together, we aim to accelerate the transition to an open, interoperable digital economy. True Global Ventures has believed in this vision from the very start.”

A Defining Week for TGV

These two milestones reflect the investment philosophy of TGV, where the aim is to support visionary founders, accelerate expansion in the U.S. and worldwide, and connect traditional financial services with innovations in AI and blockchain technology. Just months after being licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) as a License Fund Management Company (LFMC), TGV is now celebrating these significant successes in the U.S., establishing itself among the world’s most robust venture capital funds.

True Global Ventures (TGV) focuses on investing in companies engaged in AI and blockchain technology, primarily in the growth or late stage. The TGV portfolio boasts notable names such as Animoca Brands, Forge Global, Ledger, The Sandbox, and many more. Almost all portfolio companies are either based in the U.S. or expanding into the U.S. market. With offices in San Francisco, New York, Paris, London, Stockholm, Dubai, Singapore, and Hong Kong, TGV is committed to supporting visionary founders in building the next generation of transformative tech companies.
