Panel on New Listings brings back Old Memories

Oct 14, 2025

Horizon .com may not be a familiar name today, but back in January 2000, it was one of the hottest IPOs on the market. I shared my experience with the company during a recent panel discussion on IPOs hosted by SGX.

That same year saw a record 76 IPOs, and I had the opportunity to engage with the management teams of more than 50 of them. It was a pleasure to revisit those early days and exchange insights alongside IR veteran Lai Kwok Kin, founder of WeR1, and Leong Huey Miin, MD of Zico Capital, who moderated the session.
