Amity, the enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) technology company founded in Thailand, announced Monday the official launch of its Singapore office and AI Research & Application Center (ARAC).
The expansion follows its recent landmark $100 million Series D funding round1, led by EDBI, arm of SG Growth Capital, the investment platform of EDB and Enterprise Singapore, alongside Asia Partners and SMDV, with participation from existing and new investors, including CMLIM Capital, Amity said in a statement.
The Singapore hub will serve as Amity’s regional headquarters for Southeast Asia, and the global home of its AI research capabilities as it targets $200 million in annualized revenue by end-2026 and prepares for a public listing in 2027.
The launch marks a significant milestone in Amity’s growth trajectory. Having surpassed $100 million in annualized revenue in 2025 – growing more than tenfold since 2022 – Amity is entering its next phase of expansion and growth with Singapore as its strategic hub.
The company is deploying its $100 million Series D capital across three strategic priorities: accelerating Agentic AI development and compressing research and development (R&D) timelines through ARAC; fueling strategic merger and acquisition (M&A) targeting high-potential software companies in Europe and Southeast Asia; and attracting top-tier engineering and commercial talent to Singapore.
This move also positions the company to better support enterprise clients across the ASEAN region.
“When we started Amity, we believed that Asian enterprises deserved AI that is built for their reality, not tools designed for other markets and retrofitted for ours. Singapore is where that belief comes to life,
“The ARAC is not just a research center, it is our commitment to building the foundational AI capabilities that enterprises across Asia will run on for the next decade, and the base from which we intend to accelerate Amity’s next phase of growth. We have grown tenfold in three years – Southeast Asia is at an inflection point, and we are not here to observe it. We are here to define it,” said Korawad Chearavanont, Amity’s Executive Chairman and Founder.
According to the statement, the firm’s Singapore presence is the AI Research & Application Center (ARAC), which develops vertical AI models purpose-built for enterprises – trained on real industry data rather than generic datasets.
Thus, the firm is actively hiring across AI research, engineering, and go-to-market disciplines in Singapore, creating high-value employment in disciplines central to Singapore’s national AI agenda.
The company has planned for up to 60 roles to be created in the next three years.
“Singapore provides a strong foundation for companies looking to develop and scale enterprise AI, with access to deep talent, a trusted and collaborative innovation ecosystem, and strong regional connectivity,
“Amity’s decision to establish its AI Research & Application Center and regional headquarters here underscores Singapore’s strengths as a hub to build advanced AI capability, commercialize innovation, and expand regionally,” said Yeung Chia Li, Senior Partner, EDBI.
As Asia’s premier enterprise technology hub, Amity sees Singapore offers the convergence of research talent, regulatory sophistication, and institutional infrastructure that Amity’s next phase of growth demands.
For a company building AI that must perform reliably across diverse languages, regulatory regimes, and enterprise environments, it noted Singapore’s position at the intersection of these markets makes it uniquely suited to anchor its work.
Amity said it chose Singapore largely due to its AI ecosystem and the ambition behind its national AI agenda — a clear signal that the country is investing seriously in the same sectors where Amity’s vertical AI models are built to serve, including financial services, advanced manufacturing, connectivity, and healthcare.
It noted Singapore’s refreshed National AI Strategy alongside the establishment of the National AI Council to guide the country’s AI direction, are strong signals that enterprise AI is not a peripheral interest but a national economic priority.
The firm also highlighted that the Singapore base will strengthen the company’s capacity to deliver solutions at scale, backed by a five-company ecosystem: Amity Solutions, Tollring, EGG Digital, Amity Accentix, and Amity-Nordstar.
Together, they deliver CX, analytics, communications, and voice capabilities from a single partner. This gives enterprise clients a breadth of solutions that would otherwise require multiple vendor relationships.
Singapore’s role as regional headquarters means this integrated offering can now be delivered with greater proximity to Amity’s growing base of clients across Southeast Asia and beyond.
Amity’s platforms serve over 10 million monthly active users across more than 20,000 organizations in over 20 countries.
More recently, its subsidiary, Tollring, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire UK-based Code Software.
The proposed transaction will bring together two major forces in the communications analytics space—further expanding Amity’s global presence and market share across the United Kingdom, United States, European Union, and Australia and New Zealand regions, while affirming its continued strategic focus on AI-driven analytics and recording capabilities.
