No problem in fully shaded condition but will result in fewer pitchers, leaves grown longer.

The best result was to grow in the open with direct sunlight,placed the pot with other plants together as they compliment each other for the cool and shade.

In the wild the upper vine of most neps would reach for the open to receive sunlight, scrambling among low shrubs and bushes unless there are taller trees to vine upwards. pitchers formed under the dense shrubs and bushes tend to have attractive red.

Thanks Robert for your insight. It's definately very beneficial to be able to observe how neps grow in the wild, one can get a more in depth understanding of the growing requirement and the tolerence, there's always something new to learn from mother nature...
