Infineon Technologies Asia Pte Ltd., opens its Asia Pacific Headquarters building at Kallang Sector. The two 10-storey towers house Infineon's regional headquarters functions in the Asia Pacific, including production, logistics, sales and marketing and R&D. Besides having an Integrated Circuits Design centre, Infineon Technologies Asia Pacific is also the global testing hub for its logic IC products.
The opening ceremony was inaugurated by guest of honour, Mr Lim Hng Kiang, Minister of Trade and Industry for Singapore, in the presence of Dr. Wolfgang Ziebart, CEO of Infineon Technologies AG.
In his speech at the opening ceremony, Lim commented, "Singapore's partnership with Infineon spans over 30 years. Since the establishment of its IC Design Centre in the early 1990s, Infineon's R&D team here has grown to over 300 research scientists and engineers. Infineon also employs some 200 IC designers. This makes Infineon the largest IC design team in Singapore."
"The opening of the new Asia Pacific Headquarters building marks a significant milestone for Infineon," said Dr. Ziebart. "Currently, Asia Pacific contributes over one-third of Infineon's revenue. With Asia on its continued path as one of the strongest growth engines for the semiconductor industry, Infineon is poised for further growth."
