Drew Network Asia (DNA) Symposium | 21 May 2025

Shearn Delamore & Co.’s Partners joined the DNA’s ASEAN Rising symposium yesterday — one-day regional conference hosted by Drew Network Asia (DNA).

The conference brought together legal professionals, business leaders, and decision-makers across South East Asia to exchange insights on the region’s fast-evolving business and regulatory landscape.

Key topics explored included:

  • The Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (SEZ)
  • Managing counterparty liquidity issues
  • Tax opportunities and challenges in ASEAN
  • M&A trends and risk management
  • ESG and regulatory developments in the financial sector

We are proud to have our Partners contribute their perspectives as panel speakers at various sessions:

  • Anand Raj: Key Tax, Opportunities and Challenges for Businesses in Southeast Asia
  • Mei Ken Yee: When Counterparties Experience Liquidity Problems – What Options are Available to You?
  • Pamela Kung: ESG and Financial Regulations: The Evolving Landscape for Financial Institutions and Borrowers
  • Michelle Wong Min Er: M&A: Harnessing Opportunities, Traversing Risks
  • Eunice Low: Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ)

Our Partners, Raymond TC Low and Nicholas Tan were also in attendance, further strengthening our presence and engagement at this important regional event.

The symposium concluded with a networking session, providing a platform for DNA lawyers (Drew & Napier LLC, Makarim & Taira S., Tilleke & Gibbins, Martinez Vergara & Gonzalez Sociedad (MVGS)) across the region to re-connect, exchange ideas, and explore future collaboration.

Thank you to Drew Network Asia for organising such a forward-looking and collaborative event.

We are truly honoured to be part of this Asian legal network that continues to support meaningful regional dialogues such as this.
