Goldis Berhad, formed after the merger of Tan & Tan Developments Berhad and IGB Corporation Berhad, has its roots in property development dating back several decades. After the merger, Goldis still remains as the main shareholder in IGB Corporation Berhad. But over the years, Goldis has evolved into a private equity investment house, with a focus on the new economy. The private equity arm is active in countries mainly in Malaysia and China. We create new value in the economy while retaining roots within three key areas i.e. innovation, quality and integrity. At Goldis we continue to remain faithful to our vision of growing new businesses via the private equity model. Our belief remains in investing in passionate and driven entrepreneurs who grow our companies.
In the company's efforts to improve living and working lifestyle, Goldis focuses on:
• Life Sciences
• Information and Communications Technology ("ICT")
• Water/waste water treatment
• Investments in Emerging Markets
• Harmful bacteria and chemical free organic aquaculture
• Property investment
In aquaculture, G Fish (Asia) Sdn Bhd (formerly known as Protech Yu (Asia) Sdn Bhd), is the Master Licensee for the Fish Protech system of aquaculture for Asia (www.protech-yu.com.my) and owns the OM3 fish brand (www.om3fish.com).
Bridging the digital divide is a vital business imperative for the future. Goldis has strategic investments in Macro Kiosk Berhad (www.macrokiosk.com) and Macro Lynx Sdn Bhd (www.macrolynx.com).
Macro Kiosk Berhad is a mobile communications messaging provider and Macro Lynx Sdn Bhd provides business communications solutions offering wired and wireless data services.
Another key investment is GTower, our new corporate headquarters and a new landmark in the KL city centre. GTower is strategically located at 199, Jalan Tun Razak, near the Jalan Ampang corner straddling the two major arterial roads of Kuala Lumpur. This new building is a Grade A++ GREEN and SMART building with low energy design features, superior fiber connectivity and offers a unique 24 hour/ 7 day New Working Concept, integrating Offices, Hotel, Club floor and facilities under one roof. GTower was completed in 2009 and will provide long term recurring investment returns (www.GTower.com.my).
In addition to all these strategic and diverse business investments, Goldis Berhad continues to seek investments and opportunities in ICT, life sciences, water/waste water treatment, high growth industries and opportunities in emerging markets. We are also looking to assess synergistic/strategic business opportunities. Please contact us if you have any interesting opportunities for our review.
