<h1>Private equity carveout wins industry award for transformative founder partnership, Singapore HQ, India factory and cross-border restructuring</h1> A private equity firm received an industry award for a divisional carveout completed in April 2024, following a year-long partnership with the target company's founder to restructure the business as an independent, Singapore-headquartered global manufacturer. The investor and a co-investor group co-authored a new business plan, supported capital expansion including a new factory in India and a Singapore headquarters, and scaled production and product lines. The award cited the transaction as transformative private equity activity. Key legal issues implicated include carveout structuring, governance and equity allocation among investors and founders, cross-border corporate, employment and manufacturing-site regulatory compliance, and investor exit planning.
