Vongroup Limited ( (HK:0318) ) has provided an announcement.
Vongroup Limited has agreed a share swap under which it acquired a 40% stake in Slencor AI Inc. for HK$24 million and simultaneously disposed of a 60% interest in Vongroup Consumer Finance Corporation to the same counterparty for the same amount. The transaction, settled by set-off, marks a strategic pivot from consumer finance toward artificial intelligence data training and Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback services, aligning with Vongroup’s broader technology ambitions.
As part of the deal, Vongroup secured a right of first refusal to buy additional shares in Slencor AI up to a total cap of HK$120 million, with pricing linked to the target’s earnings and any competing third-party offers. The board highlighted growing demand for high-quality AI data training and the scalability of Slencor AI’s model as key rationale, signalling an effort to strengthen the group’s competitive position in AI agentic data training and create cross-selling opportunities for AI solutions across its existing client network.
