Across SEA, thousands of MSMEs lack a solid succession plan. 

What happens when perfectly healthy businesses have no one willing and able to take the lead?

Enter Timah Partners. They’re a firm that acquires MSMEs lacking successors and gives businesses the longevity they deserve.

  • They run a CEO training program to shape future leaders to take over MSME operations.

Some more detail. They focus on helping cash-heavy B2B companies with solid internal teams, established customer relationships, and predictable cash flow, but limited assets such as machinery or property. 

💰 What’s with the $$$? 

They’ll use the facility to finance the acquisition of asset-light MSMEs with strong cash flow in Singapore.
