Adrian Foong

My passion for business and entrepreneurship began in my parents' business in Malaysia, where I grew up seeing all the complexities and opportunities that come with running a small enterprise.  While I went on to study mathematics and actuarial sciences, my enthusiasm for business and problem-solving that was ingrained from an early age always guided me towards a career in investing.  

After graduating, I started my career in PwC's deals advisory team where I earned my chartered accountant qualification. I went on to join Rothschild & Co's investment banking team, working on M&A transactions across various sectors and honing my corporate finance and dealmaking skills.  With this background, I was able to make the move to join the investing team at Blixt.  

What I really enjoy about Blixt is the broad range of opportunities we consider together.  The team’s creativity in solving complexity and our collaborative but challenging culture are what stand out to me as making investing fun and exciting.

Outside of work, you'll find me cheering for Arsenal, watching Formula 1, or engaging in HIIT training. Having competed in the F45 8-week challenge, I’m aiming to reclaim the title soon.
