Kong Expands to Singapore with Newest Office in Asia

Richard Koh
VP, Asia Pacific and Japan, Kong

We’re thrilled to announce the opening of our brand-new office in Singapore. On Wednesday, March 1, 2023, we officially launched our new location at the heart of this dynamic city.

This opening is the culmination of all the hard work and growth we have accomplished over the past few years, not only in Singapore but across the APJ region. We’re incredibly proud of our team’s determination and grit that have brought us to this milestone and look forward to many more celebrations to come.

Kong Singapore office

We decided to open this new location after seeing record growth in Singapore and the Southeast Asia region — the drive towards digitalization has brought rapidly increasing demand for the Kong API platform, particularly from the financial services, telecommunications, technology, and government sectors. This demand has propelled our growth and enabled us to expand our operations and establish a stronger presence in Singapore.

Our new office is designed to foster collaboration, creativity, and productivity, with plenty of natural light, open spaces, and modern technology. It provides a flexible, hybrid work environment for our expanding workforce, where they have a space to work collaboratively while still having the option to work remotely from home.

“This is a landmark milestone for Kong as we continue to break new boundaries in our most successful region’s growth.”
– Adrian Phang, Director Partner and Alliances

At the heart of our new office are the team members who will be working there. We’ve carefully recruited a talented and diverse team in Singapore, and everyone brings their unique skills and experiences to the table. We're confident that their dedication and hard work will help us achieve our goals as a business and make a positive impact in the local community.

We interviewed a few members of the team and asked them what this expansion means to them.

"I'm thrilled to be a part of Kong’s growth in Singapore. With the opening of this new office, we can better serve our customers and partners in the region, providing them with the innovative technologies and know-how to stay ahead of the competition. This is a landmark milestone for Kong as we continue to break new boundaries in our most successful region’s growth." – Adrian Phang, Director Partner and Alliances

"Joining Kong has been an incredible experience for me, and I’m thrilled to be a part of the team that’s opening our new office in Singapore. As a software engineer, I’m looking forward to working in a space designed for collaboration and creativity, and I can’t wait to contribute to the continued growth of our company in this exciting city." - Degui Xu, SE Manager

We hope you will join us in celebrating this exciting milestone for our company and look forward to sharing more updates from our new office in Singapore in the coming months. Thank you for your continued support and partnership.
