Sydney regional HQ drives Software AG into Japan

IT Industry - Strategy

Software AG has taken another step in the implementation of its regional growth strategy driven from its Asia Pacific head office in Sydney, by officially opening its new office in Tokyo, Japan, the world’s number two IT market.

The new office will directly serve the company’s well established Japanese customer base of over two hundred enterprises. It will report to John O’Malley, General Manager, Asia Pacific and Japan, and will be supported by the Sydney regional headquarters of Software AG.

The Japanese market is expected to contribute in the range of A$24m-A$35m per annum to group revenue with profits in line with group average. Software AG, reporting more than 30% growth in Asia in the first nine months of 2006, is one of the fastest growing IT companies in the region.

“Having a direct presence in the world’s second largest IT market is a major business initiative and an important step in extending Software AG’s global reach and achieving our ambitious growth targets”, said Mr O’Malley. “With our Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach to Legacy Modernisation and Business Integration we are confident that we have the ideal product portfolio to fully support our large customer base in Japan.” 

Software AG now has six regional offices in the Asia Pacific region, operating under the Sydney head office; China, Hong Kong, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, and Australia.
