Asia Industry Taxonomies

The Asia Industry Taxonomies API provides the Uzabase proprietary industry classification system for companies in the Asia Private Markets Data feed. We specialize in Asia data, and we also have data available globally. The taxonomy is organized as a three-level hierarchy:

Sector > Sub-Sector > Industry

Each company can be mapped to one or more industries, with one designated as the primary classification. Mappings may be analyst-curated or auto-assigned with a confidence score.
