The private placement was upsized from the initial 66.313 million units totalling $100m. The issue price was fixed at $1.508 per unit.

Most of the proceeds will be used to partly finance the Phase 1 of a business park in Bangalore, India. $3m will be used to pay the expenses from the private placement, and another $3m will be for funding existing pipeline projects and repaying debts.

The trading of the units in SGX-ST is expected to start on 28 November.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
