Value Creation – Out of ~1,500 public listed companies in Taiwan, only ~100 companies are actively covered by foreign institutions and ~300 are actively researched by domestic institutions. ~1,200 companies are over-looked & under-researched.

Athena aims to discover under-researched “hidden gems; future stars” from ~1,200 over- looked/out-of favor publicly listed companies for direct investments and be a “friendly shareholder activist” to assist corporate management enhancing shareholder value through successful investor relations strategy.
