IPO could raise Razer CEO's net worth to $1.2b

Its early investor team includes Li Ka-shing, Temasek, and Intel.

Bloomberg reports that after raising funds from Asia’s biggest investors, including Hong Kong tycoon Li Ka-shing and Singapore’s Temasek Holdings Pte, Razer Inc. is turning to the market for an initial public offering that will make its co-founder Tan Min-Liang a billionaire.

Tan, a Singapore entrepreneur who’s also Razer’s chief executive officer, owns about 42 percent of the San Francisco-based maker of video gaming accessories such as mice and headsets, together with his family.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
