January 22, 2016

Woodbridge International, a global mergers and acquisition firm focused on middle-market companies, is pleased to announce the opening of its Seoul, South Korea office. The South Korea office extends Woodbridge’s footprint in Asia, which already includes offices in Japan and China.

Entrepreneur and investment banker, Sangwan Scott Kang, CFA, is heading up the Seoul office. For the past 20 years, Sangwan worked with some of world’s largest companies and investors in the roles of investor and advisor. An entrepreneur himself, he has been involved in the entire life cycle spectrum of businesses. Earlier in his career, Sangwan was a top-rated senior technology analyst at Credit Suisse First Boston and Lehman Brothers. Recently, he has been focused on cross-border private investment activities between Asia and the U.S. and is a general partner at a startup incubator and consultancy in Korea. Sangwan holds a BA and MBA in Finance from Seoul National University.

Woodbridge is excited to begin working with Sangwan to provide world-class mergers and acquisitions services to middle-market companies in South Korea.
