Speaker
Geoff Allen is a partner in the international corporate department and head of the corporate commercial team of Trowers & Hamlins LLP in Kuala Lumpur.
During the first part of his career, Geoff worked in the United Kingdom and Saudi Arabia where he advised a broad spectrum of international M&A transactions before moving in-house with Arabtec Holding PJSC, a leading UAE contractor company, where he became Group General Counsel and Board Secretary. Geoff left the UAE in 2020 to return to the United Kingdom as a senior legal consultant for Centrica plc, a leading UK energy supplier, until he relocated to join Trowers & Hamlins in Kuala Lumpur in 2022.
Geoff’s corporate M&A experience focuses on acquisitions, disposals, joint ventures, cross-border investments, corporate restructuring, board and governance related issues together with general corporate advisory matters. Whilst in-house, Geoff has been engaged in numerous M&A and joint venture transactions and has developed strong commercial skills together with a hands-on perspective on the construction industry, overseeing social and economic infrastructure projects in the Middle East, North Africa, Commonwealth of Independent States (“CIS”) and Asia.
More recently, Geoff has gained experience in the energy sector, primarily in energy supply to homes and businesses, and upstream oil and gas operations.
