This was one of the reasons why we have decided to set up an Asia headquarters for Firefall,” says Mr Zhu Jun, CEO of Red 5 Singapore.

“The decision to set up the office in Singapore came after much consideration and a comprehensive study of the region,” Zhu explains. “As one of Asia’s most powerful economies, Singapore is strategically-located, demonstrates a thirst for global talent, latest technology and has strong support from the government.”
