Gaming and e-commerce firm Sea Group opened its global headquarters for its digital financial services business in Singapore on May 8.
Gaming and e-commerce firm Sea Group opened its global headquarters for its digital financial services business in Singapore on May 8. The company will use the HQ as a base to build a fintech ecosystem in the region.
The firm also announced that the business, called SeaMoney, has been rebranded as Monee.
Monee is leasing 10 floors across 200,000 sq ft for the headquarters at Rochester Commons, a 17-storey building in one-north near Buona Vista.
About 1,000 finance professionals will be based there initially, although the space can accommodate up to 1,500 staff, Sea said.
The firm chose May 8 for the HQ's official opening as it was this date 16 years ago that the company began in Singapore, operating as a gaming start-up out of a rented shophouse near Maxwell Road.
Sea has since grown into a regional technology powerhouse with three core businesses — digital entertainment, e-commerce and digital payments and financial services.
