Byron Askin
I have a 20-year Private Equity career in the Asia Pacific region, having invested directly into growth companies and into PE funds. My main investment focus to-date have been in Southeast Asia, Australia, India and China, in sectors such as technology, consumer, real estate, renewable energy, and agriculture.
Besides leading regional investment teams, I also established the private equity arms for two financial institutions and most recently managed a total AUM of US$ 300 million. My experience also includes fund raising, business development and portfolio management.
Currently based in Singapore and advising a renewable energy infrastructure fund, I have experience as a board member for a number of companies, and have served on five investment committees.
