Introducing the Kao SEED Fund

The Kao SEED Fund, stands for Social Enterprise and Environmental Development, aims to provide financial support to not-for-profit community-led initiatives that drive social and environmental development. Through our regional funding pots, we offer small packages of financial support and ongoing mentorship that will empower local projects focused on creating a positive impact in the surrounding community.

Community Impact

At Kao Data, we are pioneering the future of data centres with an inclusive approach that ensures local communities are part of our journey. Through our innovative community impact strategy, we’re not just powering digital infrastructure; we’re actively contributing to local innovation, economic growth, and social progress.

Through the Kao SEED Fund, we are demonstrating how data centres can act as catalysts for local communities and make a real difference to people locally. By supporting inspiring, community-led, grassroots projects, we aim to foster a greener, more vibrant environment while empowering local communities to thrive.
