New Report “Early Bird” Maps Tech Investing for Asian Family Offices

Published

on

Annum Capital, Deane Consulting, and Turoid launch this practical guide
for Asian Family Offices on how to capture tech alpha via private markets
and manage complexity to secure allocation and returns.

HONG KONG, June 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A groundbreaking institutional report titled “Early Bird: A Practical Guide for Asian Family Offices Investing in Technology Through Private Markets” has been launched today.

Co-authored by Annum Capital, Deane Consulting, and Turoid, the report details a profound structural shift facing family offices and private investors in their quest to secure technology alpha.

Drawing on Annum Capital’s private market expertise and integrating the insights of Schroders Capital, EQT, Hamilton Lane, Marex, Synpulse, Gateway, Carret Private and other institutions, this report analyzes the investable themes in the private AI stack, explains the main access routes, discusses the silent competition for allocation, and offers a practical framework for diligence and exit planning.

Interesting highlights of the report:

Category-defining tech giants are staying private for 10 to 14+ years, whilst over 90% of their value compounding occurs behind closed doors. The traditional IPO has been reframed from a growth gateway into a late-stage liquidity event designed to provide exit routes for early stakeholders. Family offices have to be early birds to capture value.The best private tech deals are structurally supply constrained. Family offices and their clients must realize that “money alone is not enough”. They need to deploy perpetual capital, leverage operational agility, and build deal reputation to stand out in the allocation hierarchy that traditionally favors existing shareholders, VC funds and strategic investors.Family offices must learn to handle information gaps and structural complexity. Rushed due diligence, multi-layered opacity, excessive fees, and lack of control over exit/distribution can erode net returns and create risks, and must be mitigated through effort and negotiation.Regulatory headwinds cannot be underrated. US and Mainland China rules are multiplying, impacting access, entry, and exit (sometimes retroactively) – as a recent landmark case laid bare. Meanwhile, Hong Kong SAR‘s supportive infrastructure and network can help family offices craft the right approach and execute the exit.

TotalEnergies ENEOS Extends Solar Partnership with Ceres in Indonesia

Published

on

By

BANDUNG, Indonesia, June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TotalEnergies ENEOS successfully completed Phase 2 of a rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) project with PT. Perusahaan Industri Ceres (Ceres), a leading chocolate confectionery producer in Indonesia, at its manufacturing facility in Bandung. This follows the delivery of the first 2.2 megawatt‑peak (MWp) project in September 2024.

The latest phase adds approximately 2,400 PV panels and 1.4 MWp of on‑site solar capacity, generating over 1,380 megawatt‑hours (MWh) of renewable electricity annually. The combined on-site solar capacity of 3.6 MWp can produce 4,630 MWh of clean electricity annually, covering around 12% of Ceres’ power requirements.

This second project was delivered under a 15-year long-term agreement where TotalEnergies ENEOS develops, finances, builds and operates the on‑site solar system. Ceres pays only for the renewable electricity produced, with no upfront costs, resulting in cost savings and lower carbon emissions. In addition, this rooftop solar extension enables Ceres to reduce its reliance on conventional electricity while advancing lower‑carbon manufacturing practices within its operations.

“Working with a trusted energy partner offers customers strategic advantages beyond simply transactional savings. The completion of the Phase 2 of the project bears testimony of the trust and strong partnership as we continue to support Ceres in their clean energy transition,” said Alexandru Buzatu, Director of TotalEnergies ENEOS Renewables Distributed Generation Asia Pacific. “Leveraging our technical expertise, we help customers like Ceres reduce emissions and manage energy costs while maintaining focus on their operational priorities.”

“We are excited to take this significant step towards a more sustainable future. With Phase 1 completed in September 2024 and Phase 2 now successfully delivered, this project stands as a testament to our commitment. The combined system contributes to an estimated reduction of 4,200 tons of carbon emissions per year. Ceres is proud to embark on this partnership with TotalEnergies ENEOS in achieving this sustainability milestone, marking a clear advancement toward Indonesia’s target of reaching net-zero emissions by 2060 or sooner,” said Nancy Florencia, President Director of PT. Perusahaan Industri Ceres.
