ARC Group is pleased to announce the promotion of Charlene Lui to Director. Based in Hong Kong, Charlene is a member of the firm’s M&A team, where she has built a track record of originating and overseeing new business opportunities and client engagements from initial pitch through transaction closing, helping drive ARC Group’s deal pipeline across the region.
Charlene joined ARC Group as an Associate in 2023. Since then, she has cultivated partnerships with private equity firms, venture capital investors, corporates, and business partners across the region. Her sector focus spans, Industrial, Technology and Healthcare, three areas where ARC Group continues to see rising cross-border deal activity and where she has advised clients on navigating increasingly complex transactions.
Prior to joining ARC Group, Charlene drove business growth and formed strategic partnerships across TMT, Real Estate, and Technology. She supported the expansion of an early-stage technology startup in Hong Kong, where she managed communication with corporate partners, participated in roadshows, and helped the company secure a place in an accelerator program.
Charlene holds a bachelor’s degree in Biology from The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
Sergio Camarero, President of ARC Group, commented:
“Charlene’s promotion is well earned. She has consistently shown the judgment and client instincts we look for in our dealmakers, and her ability to build trust with partners across private equity, venture capital, and corporates has directly translated into results for our clients. We are excited to see her take on greater responsibility as Director.”
Charlene Lui added:
“I’m grateful for the trust ARC Group has placed in me since I joined in 2023. This industry moves quickly, and the biggest lesson for me has been the judgement and discipline it takes to see a transaction through to completion – built on the confidence that clients and partners have given me along the way. I’m looking forward to taking on more responsibility and continuing to build on the relationships that have shaped my work so far.”
Charlene’s promotion to Director reflects her sustained contribution to ARC Group’s M&A practice and her ability to translate client relationships into transaction outcomes. As ARC Group scales its presence across key growth markets in Asia, Charlene will take on a more central role in originating and executing cross-border M&A mandates, deepening the firm’s coverage across private equity, venture capital, and corporate clients across the globe.
