Flyability, a Swiss company building indoor drone solutions for the inspection and exploration of confined spaces, has opened an Asia-Pacific (APAC) regional hub in Singapore.

With the addition of the new office, Flyability now has four global offices—one in Switzerland, one in the US, one in China, and now one in Singapore.

The Singapore office will serve as the center for the company’s activities in APAC, helping Flyability align more closely with its partners and customers in the region.

“Singapore’s capability as a global innovation hub with advanced technological and digital infrastructure was a key factor in our decision to make it the center of our Asia-Pacific regional hub,” said Patrick Thévoz, co-founder and CEO of Flyability. “With our presence here, we aim to support the organization’s growth and provide best-in-class service to our partners and customers. With offices in Switzerland, the U.S., China, and now Singapore, we truly are a global company, providing internal inspection solutions that help keep people safe throughout the world.”

The APAC sales office is currently located within Singapore’s CBD area, The Hive. Partnering with Viscoy, a specialist supplier of Remote Visual Inspection tools, the region will also have its own Center of Excellence (CoE) located in Singapore. This center aims to support industries across the region in areas such as training and upskilling our partners and customers in enabling safer and cost-effective inspection using indoor drones.

“We already have a significant presence in APAC,” said Niels Delore, General Manager of APAC for Flyability “By having a team here, we hope to strengthen our relationship with our partners and customers while building inroads to new markets that we’re excited to explore.

We are grateful for the support from the Economic Development Board (EDB) of Singapore, the Swiss Chamber of Commerce Singapore, the Swiss Business Hub (SBH), the Swiss Embassy, and OneHR Singapore in supporting us to establish our presence here in this region”.

Flyability is the indoor drone market leader and a leading international industrial robotics companies. The expansion into APAC will support Flyability’s growth in the years to come, following its success in expanding its U.S. presence by opening an office in Denver, USA in early 2020.
