A client is setting up a young collectors group with the Freer and Sackler Museum in Washington DC, USA (the national asian art museum). The Director of External Affairs is heading to Hong Kong next week to meet with sponsors and potential donors. Those interested in becoming a member (individuals as well as firms) or who might benefit from association with the museum, please contact me. Current membership includes corporations with an asian presence, asian companies looking to increase their US profile etc. - it is a good networking/lobbying spot ... they just had an event for the US-China Business Council and are having more in conjunction with their "China and Iraq" exhibition. Individual membership starts from USD2,000. Corporate rates are negotiable, and most importantly, tax deductible.

My client
is a public-listed entity based in Southeast Asia.
They are looking at strategic diversification
into F&B businesses via M&A with privately-owned
operators with a proven profit track record. The
target companies may be based in Southeast Asia
or Down Under.
Typically, we will inject additional working capital
into the businesses we are interested in and,
if necessary "buy out" the original
founders, either partially (preferred) or totally
(only if absolutely necessary), by way of a share
swap.
At this point, we are open to a variety of opportunities
~ including snacks and confectionery as well as
food systems (or regional master franchises).
As we are corporate investors, we would require
a majority stake of at least 50.1% to make the
M&A project feasible and worthwhile to explore.
Our preference is for a 70:30 partnership arrangement
in most cases.
