25 April 2023 – Bain & Company, a leading global management consulting firm, joined forces with Makati Business Club for an insightful discussion on the latest venture capital trends and strategies from the report on the private equity market. The event, which was held on April 25 and moderated by MBC Executive Director Francisco Alcuaz, provided valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing private equity in the region and the Philippines.
“We were thrilled to partner with Makati Business Club for this event,” remarked Patricia Buenaventura Nichol, Partner and Office Head of Bain Philippines. “We are the market leaders in private equity consulting and we have done the private equity report for over 10 years.”
During the discussion, Bain & Company’s Senior Partner Usman Akhtar shared their latest report on the Southeast Asian private equity market, providing valuable insights into the current landscape, as well as opportunities and challenges for investors. The session also highlighted sectors that have the most potential in the growing market, namely Energy Transition and Generative AI.
