18th May 2023 – GlobeScan, the independent insights and advisory consultancy, is pleased to announce the opening of a new office in Singapore, expanding its global footprint to nine offices across all regions of the world and strengthening its presence in Asia.
GlobeScan will bring its expertise and research-led approach to companies, NGOs, and governmental organizations located in Southeast Asia to help them better understand their stakeholders’ expectations, build trust, and support their leadership ambitions in sustainability, corporate affairs, and brand marketing.
Gail Klintworth, GlobeScan Chair said: “We are thrilled to launch GlobeScan in Singapore where the transition to a more sustainable and equitable future is already underway and look forward to serving our clients in Southeast Asia with our unique set of capabilities.”
In addition, GlobeScan has appointed Tze Haung Ong as Director to lead the Singapore office. Tze Haung has 20 years of consulting experience in sustainability, corporate affairs, and public policy.
On joining GlobeScan, Tze Haung said: “I am delighted to join GlobeScan. Interest in climate change and sustainability continues to be high, with 73 percent of Singaporeans saying they have been greatly or moderately personally affected by climate change and 40 percent saying they have purchased a sustainable product in the past month. We look forward to partnering with stakeholders in Singapore and Southeast Asia on their sustainability journeys and opportunities in the green economy.”
Opening a new office in Singapore is a strategic move for GlobeScan as the company has been working across Asia for many years and launched its Hong Kong office in 2015 followed by its India office in 2019.
Chris Coulter, CEO at GlobeScan said: “This is an exciting time in GlobeScan’s 35-year history, and we are honored to be a part of the Singapore community. We continue to build our capacity to support leading organizations everywhere in the world including in the ASEAN region and apply our expertise in social sciences to help clients lead a better future.”
