US-based data software company Hammerspace has announced the establishment of its Asia headquarters in Singapore, marking a significant expansion into the region. This move is motivated by the increasing demand for artificial intelligence (AI), high-performance computing, and GPU-intensive applications. The company has also launched operations in Japan and China, with plans to expand further into other Asian markets in 2025.
Hammerspace’s expansion aligns with Singapore’s Smart Nation and AI initiatives, including the Budget 2025 applied AI initiative and RIE2030 research programmes. As Singapore continues to adopt AI and cloud technologies, businesses are required to enhance their data infrastructure to ensure seamless and high-performance access across hybrid cloud environments. The country’s AI market is projected to reach US$1.40bn in 2025.
The company has reported record growth in 2024, with customer adoption increasing by 32% year-on-year and revenue rising tenfold. Hammerspace’s solutions are utilised across various sectors, including finance, government, leisure, life sciences, media, technology, and retail. Notable clients include Meta, which has achieved significant cost savings and faster data access, and Blue Origin, which has realised over US$1m in cost reductions.
Hammerspace aims to create a single global data environment that spans any storage or cloud location, offering automated data orchestration, enhanced security, and seamless integration with existing infrastructure. The company will also be presenting at Supercomputing Asia from 10 to 13 March 2025, further solidifying its presence in the region.
