Financing leaders will analyze the impact of the macroeconomic environment on M&A and dealmaking in APAC, exploring whether valuations are becoming more realistic and what the future holds for the region. We’ll examine financing opportunities such as IPOs, REIT listings, equity fundraising, and debt options that TowerCos and data centre operators are pursuing, while also exploring how access to financing, interest rates, and FX exposure are influencing growth plans.
