Mellanox Technologies, a supplier of high-performance, end-to-end interconnect solutions for data centre servers, cloud and storage networking solutions, has opened a new Asia Pacific (APAC) headquarters, technology solutions centre and executive briefing facility in Singapore.

The joint office and solutions centre is expected to be fully operational by November this year. The new APAC headquarters will house business and R&D teams to accelerate the region revenues and solutions development around Mellanox’s interconnect technology.

“Mellanox Technologies’ headquarters in Singapore will be our first physical presence in Asia outside of China and Japan, hosting groups of business professional and engineering teams,” said Charlie Foo, VP and GM, Asia Pacific, Mellanox Technologies. “The new office will help us to strengthen and accelerate our business across Asia Pacific, and foster further collaborations with our partners and customers.”

“With this operational expansion, we intend to focus on and better serve our key market sectors, including the government of Singapore, higher education facilities in Australia, and cloud service providers across the region. In doing so, we intend to strengthen our footprint in Asia,” he added.

Mellanox's customers in the region include Monash University and the National Computational Infrastructure in Australia, the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) in India, Fujitsu and SAKURA Internet in Japan, Samsung in Korea as well as the Singapore Exchange and the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*Star) in Singapore.
