COLLABRO EXPANDS INTO ASIA PACIFIC REGION

Specialist information systems company Collabro is expanding its operations into the Asia Pacific region with the launch of two subsidiary companies.

The Aberdeen-based business, which provides solutions to information management process issues, has opened offices in the centre of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and in Perth, Western Australia.

The KL office will be run by Tom Kennedy with support from two members of staff whilst the Perth office will be headed up by Nigel Bull who will lead a team of four.

The two office openings mark Collabro’s first move to establish an overseas presence to provide support to international customers.

Janice Grant-Shaw, managing director at Collabro, said: “Having launched Collabro in Aberdeen in 2004, we have grown an impressive client base that includes some of the key operators in the oil and gas market.

One of our main objectives for this year was to expand our share of the overseas market and we felt that the most efficient way to achieve this was by establishing an international presence on the ground so that our business is more readily accessible to potential customers.

“The Asia Pacific region is a thriving hub of activity for the energy market and it presents a fantastic opportunity for Collabro to make its software products and services available to a wider audience. Whilst the office in KL is ideally positioned to service clients in the Middle East and Asia, our base in Perth will target the country’s mining operators and its oil and gas sector.

“This is an exciting time for Collabro and we are very much looking forward to growing the two new subsidiaries to achieve the same level of success that our UK-based business has already gained.”

Collabro currently employs 16 staff at its base in Bridge of Don, Aberdeen, and offers a range of services to clients, including delivering and overseeing multi-participant projects and designing bespoke solutions for specific client needs.
