Tomoro AI, a global artificial intelligence (AI) consulting and engineering firm that works closely in Alliance with OpenAI, has announced the opening of its Asia-Pacific headquarters in Singapore.

Tomoro said in a statement on last Thursday that the new office will serve as Tomoro’s regional command center for designing, building and scaling production grade AI solutions for large enterprises across finance, healthcare, consumer goods, media and beyond.

According to the statement, its Co-founder Albert Phelps has moved from the United Kingdom to head the Singapore hub, bringing Tomoro’s rapid-delivery playbook – typically 8 – 12 weeks from concept to live deployment (such as launching an AI support agent to 110 million users in 12 weeks) to a region experiencing record demand for enterprise AI.

“We loved Singapore, this was clearly the natural launch-pad for our Asia Pacific (APAC) growth,

“Within 48 hours of touching down in Singapore it was obvious that it has world-class AI talent and deeply ambitious clients – the core components that are needed to build industry changing AI solutions,” said Albert Phelps,
Co-founder of Tomoro.

It is noted that Tomoro who boasts global clients such as Supercell (the makers of leading games like Brawl Stars and Clash of Clans) and Fidelity International (one of the largest Asset Managers in the world) has a track record of delivering production grade custom AI solutions, having worked on everything from AI basketball commentary and drug discovery to investment research, logistics management, and high-volume customer chatbots.

“Tomoro’s launch in Singapore comes at a critical time when demand for advanced AI is growing rapidly across Asia,

“We’ve worked closely with Tomoro in Europe and the US to deploy our frontier models into real-world enterprise applications, and we’re excited to see them help businesses across Asia unlock new levels of productivity, innovation, and creativity through AI,” said Oliver Jay, Managing Director, International OpenAI.

Tomoro plans to recruit 30+ AI engineers, solution designers and researchers in Singapore over the next 12 months, with further roles opening as regional demand grows.

The company will also collaborate with local universities and industry bodies on research and upskilling programs aligned with Singapore’s National AI Strategy.

“Enterprises in Asia-Pacific are racing to embed AI deeply into their core operations,

“Our priority is to ensure they achieve this swiftly, safely, and at scale – combining local talent with our proven accelerators and benefiting from our close Alliance with OpenAI,” said Ed Broussard, Managing Director of Tomoro.

“Singapore positions us perfectly to help ambitious companies across the region turn their AI vision into measurable competitive advantage,” he added.

Soo Haw Yun, Vice President, Global Enterprises of the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), Tomoro’s decision to establish its APAC headquarters and expand their engineering footprint here reflects Singapore’s attractiveness as a global business and AI hub.

“The APAC headquarters will strengthen our AI ecosystem, foster collaborations with companies to build innovative AI capabilities, and accelerate AI adoption,” he added.
