Shuyin is the Co-founder and CEO of the Beacon Fund, a boundary-breaking private debt fund that focuses on backing the ‘missing middle’ of women-owned and women-led businesses which are too small for PE, too big for microfinance, do not fit the growth profile of VC and are underserved by banks. She has been living and investing in Vietnam since 2013 and has played a pivotal role in developing the country’s impact investing sector. In addition to her role at the Beacon Fund, she is also a Partner at Patamar Capital, a leading impact investing platform in South-East Asia.
Shuyin was named a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum in 2024, one of the “40 Under 40 Most Influential Asian-Australians” in 2020, and one of Australia’s “100 Women of Influence” by the Australian Financial Review in 2015.
