Grand Venture Technology’s shareholders to sell 64% stake

Dutch firm Aalberts Advanced Mechatronics is offering $0.94 per share.

Grand Venture Technology’s key shareholders, including investment firm Novo Tellus, have agreed to sell their combined stake of 64.24%.

Dutch firm Aalberts Advanced Mechatronics is offering $0.94 per share to buy up all Grand Venture Technology shares, valuing the company at $318.9m.

The offer price is a premium of 11.9% over Grand Venture's closing price of $0.84 cents, just before its holding statement that a potential share transaction is underway.

The shareholders are locked into accepting the offer unless a competing bid of at least $1.0341 per share comes in and Aalbert declines to match it.

Zico Capital has been appointed as the independent financial adviser.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
