The Gores Group, founded by CEO and Chairman Alec Gores, is a control
oriented private equity firm specializing in acquiring and partnering with
businesses that can benefit from its operational expertise and flexible capital
base. It combines the operational and
due diligence capabilities of a strategic buyer with the seasoned M&A team
of a traditional financial buyer.
Since 1987, Gores Group has successfully acquired and operated more than
80 companies while employing a number of professionals.
Its current portfolio includes companies across diverse industries in
which its partners have considerable experience, including technology,
telecommunications, business services, industrial, healthcare, media & entertainment,

Gores Small Capitalization Partners, L.P., which have approximately US$2.1
billion and US$300 million in capital commitments, respectively.
The subject is supported by the Gores Group.
On the whole, since the history of the subject is short in Hong Kong,
consider it good for normal business engagements on L/C basis.
