Asia 1st Anniversary

Perlyn Per
Managing Director, Asia

To mark our successful one year anniversary operating in the Asian market, we hosted an evening cocktail party at the Swissotel, Stamford in Singapore, inviting industry peers in the energy, finance and public sectors and our data vendor partners to join in the celebration.

We are proud to share our success with our guests. Having been to many events over the years, I'm sure you share the same opinion that they tend to be very formal and even bordering on boring. We decided to be different, not for our sake but for our guests. Instead of a formal and boring presentation, we went for a quick walkthrough about what we do and took a 25 years Macallan whisky journey with our CEO, Richard Quigley who ended up showing a photo of himself at 19 years old. Boy...he had lots of hair back then!

We were very happy that many of our invited guests were able to attend despite their busy schedules. It is important to us that our guests felt it's worth the time and effort to be there with us... Everyone deserves a relaxing evening filled with good food and endless wine with loads of fun and laughter. To make the evening more exciting, we asked our guests to participate in a simple 'About DataGenic' quiz with the perspective of some cool prizes. Three of our prize winning guests went away happier that night!

1^st Prize
25 years old Macallan Whisky
Hoden Wan from Hypercube

2^nd Prize
Winner Aporgee Cross Pen
Wilson Wong from RBS Sempra Commodities

3^rd Prize
2001 Reserva Especial Rioja Red wine
Tang Chek Woo from Kim Eng Securities

We appreciated the compliments from our guests during the evening and indeed from the many emails we received and are pleased to hear that everyone enjoyed themselves. I must say, it makes our efforts all the more worthwhile. Our hope is that our guests take away the message that DataGenic is a fun company to partner with, and also a company that truly aims at delivering solutions that empower our clients and that address their business requirements.

As you are reading our blog now, I just want to thank you personally for taking the time to read. (Hey! Aren't you supposed to be working?)
