01
Pre-investment thinking
Pressure-test demand, concept, operating assumptions, CAPEX/OPEX, risk and delivery logic before commitments become expensive.
FOR INVESTORS & COMPANIES
An operator who can connect capital with execution
I have worked across hospitality operations, launches, turnaround, digital products and owner-side project delivery, including projects in Thailand since 2023. The investor proposition is simple: make economics, responsibility, risks and execution visible before capital is committed.

CURRENT OPPORTUNITY · KAIF 2.0
A premium multi-format wellness & hospitality ecosystem on Koh Samui
KAIF 2.0 is an expanded new project based on the operating experience and brand recognition of KAIF. The current project model combines wellness, hospitality, leisure and stay products in one destination.
CURRENT MODELLED CAPITAL REQUIREMENT
≈$1.86M
Wellness spa & sauna · panoramic restaurant · lounge and view terrace · expanded spa services · gym · kids area · apartments and villas.
The current project model states a total budget of ฿61.15M (≈US$1.86M at 32.9 THB/USD, 28 Sep 2026), with a possible ±15% adjustment after full project preparation. The project is seeking an investor; no opening date is set. These are forward-looking planning figures from the project financial model, not guaranteed outcomes or a public offer.
PROJECT STRUCTURE
What the current KAIF 2.0 model actually includes
SITE
Koh Samui project site
The site configuration and area must be confirmed against the final property documents.
LEASE
9–15 year lease scenario
The owner-side project brief states a possible long-term lease of 9 to 15 years, with a 3–4 month construction rent-free period.
CAPEX
฿61.15M ≈ $1.86M
The model includes lease-related costs, construction and reconstruction, pool, terrace, sauna, kids zone, gym, villa repairs, furniture, equipment, décor, landscaping, marketing and launch.
DELIVERY
Opening date not set
The final scope, BOQ, legal structure, permits and site readiness still need to be validated before a binding delivery schedule is agreed.
MODELLED ECONOMICS
Forecast ranges from the current project model
These numbers are planning assumptions from the KAIF 2.0 working financial model. They are shown for transparency and must be validated through due diligence, final site terms, BOQ, tax/legal structuring and operating assumptions before any investment decision.
REVENUE · LOW
฿4–5M / month
Current low-season forecast in the working model.
REVENUE · HIGH
฿6.5–8M / month
Current high-season forecast in the working model.
OPEX
~฿3.7M / ~฿4.7M
Modelled monthly operating expenses for low / high season respectively.
OPERATING PROFIT
~฿1.2M / ~฿2.9M
Modelled monthly profit for low / high season respectively.
PROJECT ROI
≈27% / year
Modelled return to the investor before corporate income tax. A forecast, not a guaranteed return.
PAYBACK
≈3.7 years
Modelled payback from opening, before corporate income tax; the construction period comes on top.
The model also states an 80% investor / 20% management profit-sharing scenario with approximately ฿14M annual investor net profit. This is a forecast scenario only; final investor rights, waterfall, security package, legal structure and distributions require separate agreement and professional due diligence.
PRIVATE-CAPITAL EXPERIENCE
Examples of projects where private investment was part of the delivery story
01 · THE VOICE
Private financing → commercial launch
I led The Voice from business model and private financing through lease, construction, FF&E, team, SOP/KPI, POS/CRM, pre-opening and commercial launch in approximately seven months.
Full The Voice case →02 · KAIF 2023–2025
Founder-led launch with investor/counterpart work
The KAIF case records investor search and counterpart negotiations during launch, followed by operating management, P&L, pricing, service development and cost control.
Full KAIF case →OWNER-SIDE PERSPECTIVE
An investor needs someone who can read both the model and the operating floor
OWNER REPRESENTATION
Economics are only useful if delivery can be controlled
My role is to connect the investment logic with the practical delivery layer: scope, people, contractors, systems, pre-opening and management reporting. The site intentionally separates historical proof from forward-looking opportunity.
INVESTOR DECISION FRAME
What should be clear before serious capital is committed
01
Business logic
Who pays, why they come, what they buy, how often they return and how the concept behaves in different demand scenarios.
02
Capital logic
CAPEX, OPEX, working capital, contingency, cash timing and the assumptions that move the result most.
03
Delivery logic
Site, contractors, permits, schedule, responsibilities, decision gates and what can realistically be controlled.
04
Governance
Reporting, owner visibility, decision rights, documentation and handover from project mode into operations.
