Dear Readers,  


Welcome to the December edition of the Funding Strategies newsletter, the last one for 2019 and this decade!

   

It's been an eventful year for Funding Strategies and the team; as the year (and decade!) comes to an end, we are reflecting on the people we have worked with, successes celebrated and changes made - the biggest ones being our new website and logo! 

As the year comes to a close, we are seeing a strong increase in investor activity. We have closed a number of transactions and are in discussions with a number of strategic investors around finalising Terms Sheets for more of our clients. We therefore expect 2020 to be a stronger year around investment and we expect both business and consumer confidence to rise as the year progresses. 

We thank our clients who have entrusted us with their corporate advisory requirements thus far and look forward to continue working with them as well as welcoming new clients in 2020!

This edition of our newsletter includes:

As always, we invite you download our updated deal list from our website (registration resp, log-in required, membership is free).

 Introducing Waterford Tamborine


A Commercial development in Logan, 

one of the fastest growing municipalities in Australia, with increasing population and demand for commercial properties, 42 kms south of the Brisbane CBD in Queensland



  • The Project offers convenience in a high-profile location along a very busy arterial road and is well positioned to serve current and future local residents;
  • Due to the lack of other amenities such as service stations, medical centres, fast food shops and childcare centres in the area, the commercial properties of the Project have received strong demand from prospective tenants;
  • Given the convenient location and strong demand from tenants for the commercial properties, the Project is expected to be well received in the market upon launch.

 Qponics update 


New Logo & 

Independent Testing of Algae Products

The upgraded pilot algae farm commenced operation of the new 65m x 12m pond in November this year to cultivate Nannochloropsis and harvest the new pond using the Liqoflux ultrafiltration system and the Evodos 25 centrifuge. 

There was a noticeable increase in productivity of algae (measured as grams of algae per square metre per day) in the new pond compared to that experienced using the original smaller ponds at the site. This, together with the improved harvesting process, led Qponics to commission independent analysis of the oil extracted from the dried paste and its protein-rich by-product.

   

 BlueMount Capital update


Webinar: 

Cross Border M&A | 

Overcoming Cultural Differences



Cross Border M&A activity is increasing rapidly with 2020 widely expected to be a breakout year in Australia/Asia. However, the field remains littered with transactions where significant value was lost and the transactions did not perform because a major hurdle of the Cultural Differences were inadequately addressed.


BlueMount Capital Victoria and BlueMount Capital (Beijing) Co., Ltd have partnered with Global PMI Partners, an international firm widely recognised as one of the world leaders in M&A and who specialises in post-merger integration (PMI).


BlueMount Capital Beijing’s Executive President, Dr Mona Chung, is internationally recognised for her unique and ground-breaking work in dealing with the Cultural Differences between Western and Eastern Cultures, particularly, between China and the West.


BlueMount Capital and Global PMI Partners held a joint webinar on 11th of December, 2019, titled “Overcoming Cultural Differences in Cross Border M&A“. It was a very successful presentation and multiple high levels of positive feedback were received.
