Ideas become real ventures.
We invest in, build and operate useful businesses, growing from Laos.
What we do
Ownership with active venture building.
Paperplane is not only a fund, a design agency or a software contractor. We combine all three and stay accountable for the result.
01
Invest
We back promising ideas with capital and stay involved as they grow, rather than watching from a distance.
02
Build
We bring people, design and technology together to test an idea, make the product and launch it.
03
Operate
We run businesses alongside their teams, sharing the capabilities every venture needs so each one can focus on its customers.
Ventures
One parent. Distinct ventures.
Each venture keeps its own customers, name and identity. Paperplane provides the shared foundation underneath.

02Sport
Sanaam
A venture by Paperplane
Court booking for sport in Laos. Players find and book a court in a few taps; venues manage schedules and bookings from one portal.
03Commerce
QooQoo
A venture by Paperplane
A full-service consignment marketplace for pre-owned goods in Laos. Sellers send a box; QooQoo inspects, lists, sells, ships and pays out.
A draft is only the beginning.
Every venture starts with a first sketch: a problem worth solving, an insight or a conversation. Paperplane exists to give that beginning direction.
We bring people together, test possibilities, build products and stay involved as the business grows. The fold is the moment an idea gains structure; the layers are the capabilities and ventures that grow from a shared foundation.
How we work
Five commitments behind every venture.
- 01
Build with clarity
Define the problem, the user and the next useful step before adding complexity.
- 02
Move with purpose
Work with energy, but put evidence, quality and accountability ahead of speed alone.
- 03
Back people and ideas
Support thoughtful ambition. Give teams the tools, trust and feedback to do good work.
- 04
Grow together
Share knowledge across ventures while respecting each team's identity and responsibilities.
- 05
Create lasting value
Judge progress by usefulness, sound operations and durable outcomes, not appearances.
