The
SkyVen Group was founded by former corporate attorney and banker
Peter Tan and serial entrepreneur Chew Ghim Bok in 2000. Together,
our founders have an extensive history of successful
entrepreneurship and professional venture capital, private equity
and investing experience at all stages and in numerous sectors over
many business cycles. Our team has been involved in numerous Initial
Public Offerings as investors, advisors, management and owners.
Our core business is private equity management, focusing on
late stage private equity investments in the Asia Pacific region,
particularly China. Our investment focus areas are wide ranging,
including information technology, energy, environmental technology,
manufacturing, service providers, consumer goods, food, retail
products and healthcare.
We help late stage private
companies expand their businesses and guide them in their
restructuring so that they can tap the public markets. We have
developed strong experience and networks in our various areas of
expertise and our track record speaks for itself: we have exited
profitably from virtually all our previous investments through
public listings and trade sales and thus have consistently
outperformed the market by a substantial margin since our firm's
inception. Recently, in line with our philosophy, we have also
invested in public listed companies with strong fundamentals hit by
the global economic crisis to have attractive valuation.
Our
current funds under management are SkyVen Growth Capital Fund and
SkyVen Growth Opportunities Fund. Please click here for details

Our Philosophy
We
believe in staying focused on our areas of expertise and adopting a
consistent and disciplined approach to investing. We are
value-oriented with an emphasis on absolute return. We seek
investments with strong fundamentals and attractive growth
prospects. We also invest in undervalued situations relative to
growth caused by market misperception, misunderstood fundamentals or
discounted valuations. We maintain an intense focus on downside
protection and exit management so as to optimize risk adjusted
returns.
Equally important, we believe in maintaining a
strong alignment of interest between investors and managers. Hence,
we commit significant personal capital to the funds we manage.
