Singapore has proven a great place to build a business. Although we are still new in the area after only having been here for two years, we are here to stay. As such\u00a0we plan to continue investing heavily into our business in Asia.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We want to be able to really set our roots in the area. Therefore, we decided to get a permanent location, an office we could truly call our own! Our team in Singapore has done an amazing job with the new office from hunting the space, having it redesigned, renovated and decorated. The new office really holds up to the UpCloud standards!<\/p>\n

A big thanks to all our loyal users and everyone who has helped us get started in Singapore!<\/p>\n

Anniversary party<\/h2>\n

UpCloud Asia office was established already 2 years ago in Singapore. To commemorate our second anniversary, we decided to host a party fitting for the occasion!<\/p>\n

Following a lot of preparation work, we sent out invitations to join us in celebrating the event at our brand new office on July 10th, 2019. The evening was dedicated to our fast-growing user base in the area, friends and family, all of whom have enabled us to build UpCloud Asia to a glowing success! We also had the honour of having the\u00a0Ambassador of\u00a0Finland to Singapore Antti V\u00e4nsk\u00e4 visit us for the event.<\/p>\n

We began the evening with welcome drinks to help our guests feel at home. Once everyone had settled in, we hear welcoming\u00a0words from Antti Vilpponen, CEO of UpCloud. He also shared\u00a0some fascinating insights on UpCloud’s journey in the Asia Pacific Region and what to expect in the coming years.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The evening continued with an open bar serving specially crafted drinks and enough food & snacks to make sure no one left feeling hungry.\u00a0We also got to enjoy\u00a0awesome music played by great DJ’s lifting the spirit to the roof.<\/p>\n

While we had limited space, it was packed full of joy and excitement throughout the whole evening. Many thanks to everyone who joined us in celebrating the occasion!<\/p>\n

Happy 2nd anniversary of UpCloud in Singapore!<\/p>\n

Going forward<\/h2>\n

We’ve come a long way in the past two years but are by no means going to get\u00a0complacent.\u00a0In the next 12 to 18 months, we plan to triple our team in Singapore as we continue to grow globally.<\/p>\n

We want to continue to attract the best people in their areas of expertise by promoting transparent information flow, treating everyone equally, and pursuing a high level of trust. And by equal treatment, we truly mean it! This includes for example, that everyone in UpCloud gets to enjoy the same number of holidays as people in the Nordics, a number that might be seen lavish in other parts of the world.<\/p>\n

Being able to empower our team\u00a0to do the best work of their lives translates to a great experience for our users. This is how we take on competitors far larger than we’d otherwise be able to. We\u2019ve always set about to do things differently, to be better for our users.<\/p>\n
