To spearhead this strategic venture, Samuel Sze Ming Chan, a distinguished educational expert and founder of Britannia StudyLink, an Asia-based education consultancy, has been appointed as the CEO of Nauticus Education Group. He will be instrumental in propelling the platform’s growth and realizing its vision of emerging as a foremost authority in education services.

Building on Gaw Capital’s recent growth in the Middle East, recognized for its vast potential for innovation and expansion, the firm is poised to leverage significant opportunities within the education sector in the Middle East, in addition to real estate, where advantageous demographics and robust government support engender a favorable atmosphere for high-quality education platforms.

Christina Gaw, Managing Principal, Global Head of Capital Markets, and Co-Chair of Alternative Investments at Gaw Capital Partners, stated: “The launch of Nauticus Education Group embodies our ambitious vision to capitalize on Hong Kong’s esteemed status as a premier educational hub, fostering an educational platform throughout Asia and the Middle East. This initiative underscores our long-term commitment to the education sector and our dedication to building a comprehensive framework that delivers high-quality educational services to students and families in the Asia Pacific and the Global South, including the Middle East.”

Herbin Koh, Head of Private Equity and Growth Equity, Deputy Head of Infrastructure at Gaw Capital, noted: “Gaw Capital will leverage its global network, capital resources, and operational expertise to enhance its educational and social infrastructure initiatives through Nauticus Education Group, working closely with Samuel to drive both organic and inorganic growth across the three main focus areas. Establishing the holding company reinforces our commitment to integrating the strengths of Gaw Capital’s global framework within the Middle East, which has experienced substantial macro tailwinds for the sector in recent years.”

Samuel Chan, Founder of Britannia StudyLink and CEO of Nauticus Education Group, commented: “Hong Kong has historically been a hub for educational services and expertise, well-known for its exceptional after-school programs and consultancy services. With Gaw Capital’s extensive resources, Nauticus Education Group is positioned to build a scalable and impactful educational platform that supports students, empowers families, and contributes to the overall development of the educational ecosystem.”

Nauticus Education Group is committed to cultivating a robust educational ecosystem that offers high-quality educational services to students and families across these regions. The strategy focuses on introducing Hong Kong’s leading educational services to emerging markets such as Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Middle East, while also facilitating the entry of top international educational institutions into Hong Kong and the Middle East. This reciprocal approach assures that families gain wider access to customized quality educational resources and services.
