Wachsman Expands to Asia

Industry-leading consultancy launches Singapore office and announces 20 new jobs

SINGAPORE, September 21, 2018 —  Wachsman, a leading blockchain professional services firm, has expanded to Asia and commenced operations from its Singapore office. Headquartered in New York, and with offices in Dublin and downtown Singapore, Wachsman identified Asia as a priority market and announced plans to fill 20 new positions in Singapore. The expansion allows Wachsman to provide Strategic Advisory, Event Management, and Public Relations support to blockchain market leaders and pioneers in Asia, complementing service offerings in North America and Europe.

With its new Asia-Pacific headquarters, Wachsman will build upon its international client base and take a global approach to advancing the blockchain ecosystem. The firm has already hired local talent to bolster a contingent of six experienced personnel transferred to Singapore and aims to quadruple its current regional headcount with the creation of 20 new jobs by the conclusion of 2019.

David Wachsman, CEO of Wachsman, said: “With its long-held reputation as a fintech hotspot, a birthplace of digital innovation, and as a favorable environment for blockchain adoption, Singapore was the clear choice for the next phase of our firm’s global expansion. Asia holds significant influence over the global blockchain industry, particularly at the protocol and development level. Our clients have often enquired about Wachsman’s global presence and today our footprint in Singapore enables us to provide coverage across every timezone. Our mission is to drive awareness and adoption of cutting-edge technologies that will better the world.”

Wachsman has represented more than 120 blockchain-related companies around the world, including some of the industry’s leading protocols, development teams, exchanges, consortiums, products, and services. Wachsman hired its 100th employee in August 2018 and today offers expertise from professionals with experience in industries ranging from banking and financial services to journalism, management consulting, and political affairs.

Wachsman’s launch in Asia follows a string of milestones for the firm in 2018, including a vast expansion of its New York operation and the announcement of 50 additional jobs in Dublin by the conclusion of 2020.
