Infocomm Asia Holdings aims to consolidate the online games market in Southeast Asia and be the leading operator and distributor in the region.
They offer publishers and developers a single point of access to bring the best games from all over the world to gamers in Southeast Asia.
They believe success in the diverse and intricate Southeast Asian market depends on a combination of knowledge, experience and resources.
They have the local knowledge, management experience, technical expertise and financial resources necessary to be successful in this lucrative but challenging market.
Southeast Asia has a total population of 580 million and a combined GDP of over US'893 billion. The whole region is almost half the size of China, and growing just as rapidly. The Internet penetration rate is a mere 10.5%, hence explosive growth can be expected for many years to come. Only 22% of Internet users in the region are online gamers, well below the ratios in matured markets. Online game revenue in Asia is expected to more than double from 2005 to 2011. The growth potential - in terms of Internet penetration, online gamer penetration, and revenue - is tremendous. Infocomm Asia Holdings intends to unlock the potential of this fast growing market. To do this, we will partner with or invest in the top online games operators in the region, and value-add by contributing in areas such as management, marketing, finance and technology.
