One of APAC’s Largest Operators of Flexible Workspaces, The Flexi Group, To Go Public Through Merger with Tsangs Group’s TG Venture Acquisition Corp

The Flexi Group manages 45 locations in 12 cities and 9 countries in Asia and Australia under regionally-recognized brands the Hive, Common Ground and The Cluster. Combination values The Flexi Group at an implied pro forma enterprise value of $205 million

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 5 December 2022 – The Flexi Group Holdings Ltd. (“The Flexi Group“), the largest flexible workspace operator in Asia, and TG Venture Acquisition Corp (Nasdaq: TGVC and
TGVCW) (“TGVC“), a special purpose acquisition company sponsored by Tsangs Group, announced today that they have entered into a definitive business combination agreement that will result in The Flexi Group becoming a publicly traded company upon closing.

The transaction is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2023, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. After closing, The Flexi Group’s ordinary shares are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under ticker symbol FLXG.

Unified in 2022 following a merger of three leading brands, The Flexi Group has a combined 25 years of experience designing, building and operating flexible workspaces in Asia and Australia. They are one of the region’s largest flexible workspace operators with 45 locations in 12 cities and 9 countries including Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Thailand, Philippines, Taiwan, Vietnam and Japan.

Unlike other flexible workspace operators, The Flexi Group takes an asset-light approach to its real estate ventures, partnering with landlords on joint ventures instead of leasing office space and taking on potentially significant financial obligations under rental agreements. By partnering with The Flexi Group, landlords can offer increased flexibility to tenants, as well as improve greater building engagement by offering them access to events, agile work solutions and bookable meeting and event spaces.

The Flexi Group’s multi-brand for a multi-demographic approach is unusual in the industry and creates the opportunity to partner with landlords across a variety of asset classes with differentiated pricing, building, location, and office size preferences, thus allowing each brand to grow strategically across the globe.

Following the business combination, The Flexi Group plans to embark on a consolidation strategy across APAC into North America, UAE and Europe.
