Deepgram intends to establish its Asia-Pacific (APAC) headquarters in Singapore following a strategic investment from EDBI, the investment arm of Singapore’s Economic Development Board (EDB).
Being based in Singapore will enable the real-time AI infrastructure company to bring regional leadership, customer support, partnerships, and commercial operations closer to APAC customers, build on its existing speech-to-text expertise and support across Asian languages, and expand its low-latency inference footprint in the region.
Deepgram has appointed Sriram Ved (top) as Vice President and General Manager for APAC to lead its regional strategy and oversee customer, partner and go-to-market expansion.
“We’re also seeing a new generation of AI companies building for the region and turning to Deepgram for the voice infrastructure underneath their products. They need technology that works where real conversations happen: across noise, accents, languages, and massive volumes, without sacrificing speed or reliability,” said Ved.
The Singapore office follows a strategic investment from EDBI, which will support Deepgram as it establishes a presence in Singapore and builds commercial relationships and regional operations across APAC.
“Deepgram’s decision to anchor its APAC headquarters here reflects a long-term commitment to building from Singapore. At EDBI, we partner with companies like Deepgram to establish and scale meaningful capabilities here, and we look forward to its continued contribution to Singapore’s AI ecosystem,” said Yeung Chia Li, Senior Partner of EDBI.
