Aspectus PR opens new office in Singapore

Aspectus PR has announced the opening of its new office in Singapore, coming as part of a wider strategy of expansion in Asia Pacific.

The new office will enable new clients in the region to work with the agency, while existing international clients will see further enhancement to their localised services and capabilities.

Meanwhile, Martin O'Connor has been appointed as regional director for Asia Pacific. Boasting many years of in-house and consultancy experience in the region, he is a seasoned communications and business development executive who has held successful leadership roles worldwide.

His former employers include PCCW and BT, while he has experience of working with clients such as Vodafone, Coca-Cola, Electrolux and Lilly.

Alastair Turner, global group director at Aspectus PR, said: "We will now have centres of real excellence in New York, London and Singapore supporting our specialist markets. We are a close-knit family at Aspectus and every single person is so excited about this development."

This comes after the company was recently awarded a new UK contract by RES Software, a workspace virtualisation solutions provider, based on the success of previous work between the two companies.
