Serapid Group opens Singapore operation
- Details
Degenkolb has 30 years of experience in the entertainment industry in project management and sales and most recently as managing director of J.R. Clancy‘s Singapore operation. He will remain based in Singapore where he has been residing since 2011. Prior to Singapore, Robert worked as a project manager for J.R. Clancy and oversaw the successful completion of numerous entertainment projects in both domestic and international markets.
As part of the opening of the Singapore office, Ivan Seigneur has transferred from Serapid France to join Robert in the role of technical manager, and Yu Rong Chen (sales manager, China) will also now report to Degenkolb.
The opening and resourcing of the office is part of Serapid’s on-going strategic growth plan and reflects the increasing volume of work that Serapid is securing within the Asian region. Iain Forbester (vice president business development) stated, “The opening of the new company in Singapore and its initial resourcing reflects Serapid’s commitment to the region and the desire to provide better service and support. This is the first step towards establishing a much stronger regional presence. As well as sales and marketing functions, activities will be expanded to offer design, project engineering and after sales service in what is becoming a key market for the Serapid Group.”
