𝐓𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐤'𝐬 𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐀 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐭 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐀𝐬𝐢𝐚? Temasek, the Singaporean investment giant, recently announced the opening of a new office in Paris, along with plans to invest a significant amount ($20-25 billion) in the EMEA region over the next five years. What makes EMEA so attractive? 𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐄𝐀’𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 While Southeast Asia boasts a booming tech scene, navigating investments there can be tricky. Complex regulations that differ widely across countries and limited exit opportunities (selling investments) pose challenges for investors. 𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐀: 𝐀 𝐅𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡 - Meanwhile, the EMEA region offers several attractive investment opportunities: • 𝐒𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐏𝐮𝐬𝐡: Government incentives and regulations are driving investments in renewable energy, electric vehicles, and clean technology – sectors that align perfectly with Temasek’s investment focus. • 𝐒𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐀𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐨𝐩𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Many European businesses are family-owned. Temasek can provide exit opportunities for these businesses, support intergenerational transfers, and offer minority stake financing. • 𝐃𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Europe’s “Digital Decade” plan is fueling dealmaking in IT, software, and digitalization across various industries.

Singapore’s Temasek has opened a new office in Paris, a year behind schedule, as it seeks to advance its EMEA strategy, which has seen its exposure to the region grow five-fold since 2011, in Singapore dollar terms to S$47 billion or 12% of its portfolio by end-FY2022/23. The Paris office, with an initial compliment of 12 staff, will add to Temasek’s London and Brussels offices to enhance “access to deal flow and partnership opportunities, and grow our talent pool across EMEA.” Global SWF examines the Singaporean state-owned investor's EMEA strategy and how it works within the context of its approach to diversification and capitalizing on megatrends: https://lnkd.in/eXDeiw2M

Being a Singapore-based entrepreneur, and reflecting on Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) Jacqueline Poh’s insights about Singapore’s deep pool of private capital and its role in driving growth and innovation, I couldn’t agree more. Singapore is uniquely positioned as a gateway for capital and talent across South East Asia, but there’s always room for improvement. More boldness, less timidity—that’s the key to driving innovation, right? While Singapore’s capital pool is already deep by all measures, just imagine the game-changing potential of fresh foreign capital fuelling innovation across Singapore, Asia, and beyond. But let’s not forget the international innovators who’ve set up shop here already, employing local talent, reducing friction for businesses (focus on growth rather than red tape), and driving growth—yet still hitting barriers that shouldn’t exist. With the right support— easier funding within Singapore and more flexible ways to attract foreign (tech) talent beyond just offering cash—their impact could skyrocket, taking Singapore’s ecosystem to the next level.🚀 #Singapore #PrivateCapital #VentureBuilding #AsiaPacific #SoutheastAsia BlueMeg 💙 #BlueMeg #EntityManagement #CorporateGovernance #PrivateEquity #VentureCapital #ComplianceSolutions #DigitalTransformation #BusinessInnovation #AsiaPacific #SoutheastAsia
Singapore has a deep pool of private capital to help businesses grow from here to the world 🌏 It was a pleasure to join Steven Okun and the Global Private Capital Association team to discuss the bright spots for growth and development, and how public and private partners can work together to foster a conducive investment environment 💼 🤝 Private capital will be important for Asia to drive innovation, boost infrastructure, and navigate the energy transition, among others. Singapore continues to develop our business, innovation, and talent ecosystem to be a gateway for investors to access opportunities across Asia. We look forward to partnering with private capital players to generate opportunities for innovation, job creation, and enhanced productivity across our region! 🌏 Cate Ambrose | Michael Buchanan | Felicia Chia | Sophie Fallman | Nainesh Jaisingh | Neal Kok | Brian Lim | Joseph Liow | Jenny Lee | Nomaan Mirza | Jessica Huang Pouleur | Cesar Purisima | Audrey The-Dumas | Craig Thorburn | Divya Thakur | Ridha W. #Singapore #PrivateCapital #VentureBuilding #AsiaPacific #SoutheastAsia

From 🌿 sustainability to 🤖 digital transformation and 🧠 innovation, Singapore and the Nordic and Baltic countries share many common national priorities. In a session with Ambassadors and Deputies from Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Lithuania, Norway, and Sweden, we discussed how companies from their countries see Asia as a bright spot for growth. Many are already in the region, including Southeast Asia, and partnering with Singapore to see how they can access more opportunities in growing markets. These span🔬 R&D and innovation to drive the 🌱 green transition, to scaling new solutions in the digital economy and advanced manufacturing. Singapore is committed to helping businesses tackle costs, deepen enterprise and workforce capabilities and operate more sustainably, while boosting our competitiveness as an investment destination. Measures announced at Budget 2024 are intended to address these priorities. Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) looks forward to deepening our partnership with global companies, including those from the Nordics and Baltics!
