He specialises in supporting financial institutions and industry players with investment and strategy decision-making. He has significant experience of advising financial institutions on commercial and technical due diligence projects and has been directly involved in more than 60 major transactions and fund-raising exercises. He has worked on over 50 projects within the digital infrastructure space in many of the major markets in the Asia–Pacific region, in areas such as data centres, tower infrastructure and fibre.
