Servcorp Set to Open a New State-of-the-Art Serviced Office in Singapore

    SINGAPORE, January 21, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Although 2011 is still in its infancy, the New Year is already shaping up to be an exciting one for Servcorp - the leading international serviced and virtual office provider - with the opening of its new Singapore serviced office location and the launch of its pioneering new iPhone application.

The company, which now has serviced and virtual office facilities available in 100 premium locations worldwide, is set to increase its presence in South East Asia with the unveiling of the Marina Bay Financial Centre as its flagship location in Singapore. This increases to three, the prime serviced office locations that Servcorp offers businesses setting up in Singapore.

This new suite of Servcorp serviced offices - which receives its official opening on Wednesday January 19 - is offering businesses the opportunity to be headquartered, or have a regional base, at one of South East Asia's most exclusive and highly-prestigious business addresses.

Located right in the very heart of the commercial hub that is modern downtown Singapore, the Marina Bay Financial Centre has done a great deal to reinforce Singapore's reputation as a bastion of international business activity.

This ambitious development, which has been highly-anticipated across Asia, can be found along Marina Boulevard, a mere 20-minute drive from Changi International Airport and situated close to some of Singapore's most important landmarks - such as One Raffles Quay, the Marina Bay Sands and Suntec City.

Servcorp's serviced and virtual offices are situated on the 39th floor of the centre's Tower 2 building and offer unrivalled views of the Marina Bay promenade and waterfront gardens. The Marina Bay Financial Centre is undoubtedly one of the most vibrant and lively developments in Asia - comprising retail, residential and office space.

In addition, it connects to some of the best leisure facilities and lifestyle amenities Singapore has to offer - including a performing arts institute, retail outlets, restaurants, hotels, residential buildings, and commercial facilities.

Servcorp General Manager in South East Asia, Susie Martin, comments: "This is the new centre for commerce and business in Asia, and a supreme combination of vibrant cosmopolitan energy in the heart of Singapore's new financial centre. We're very optimistic about the success of this exclusive serviced and virtual office location which will be the future of business and commerce in Asia.

"Our Marina Bay Financial Centre location will meet the strong demand for premium office space in the heart of Singapore's new downtown, while being a seamless extension to the city's central business district.

"We offer a location tailored to the needs of our clients, where they will receive access to premium serviced and virtual office solutions, and a solid IT and communications infrastructure. This will enable them to compete in this market and on any international platform."

Companies moving into the Marina Bay Financial Centre, and indeed all Servcorp clients across the world, can book boardrooms and meeting rooms at locations throughout the company's global network. To make the bookings procedure as simple as possible, Servcorp has launched its very first iPhone application, called 'Meetings'.

This groundbreaking, first-of-its-kind app offers the same options as Servcorp's online booking tool, known as 'Servcorp Online', which is recognised as one of the leading web applications in the industry.

However, instead of being accessed via a personal computer, this new application means the functionality of 'Servcorp Online' can be delivered directly to the iPhone, iPod and iPad - providing clients with instant access to the best serviced offices and meeting room facilities available globally.

Free via iTunes or the Apple App Store, 'Meetings' has an extremely user-friendly interface, which helps guarantee a desirable user experience, where bookings can be made in real time and in less than one minute.

Head of Servcorp's Strategic Technology Group, Matthew Baumgartner, says: "The 'Meetings' application provides users with access to key business resources such as meeting rooms, boardrooms, secretarial services, audio visual equipment and catering - as well as the ability to extend invitations to customers and business colleagues.

"Servcorp's aim has always been to drive the success of our clients' businesses by connecting technology to real business outcomes. Having instant and simple access to our physical facilities globally via the iPhone is just another way to do this."

With plans to release a Japanese language version of the 'Meetings' application later this year, and with the company continuing to expand its worldwide serviced and virtual office portfolio, Servcorp looks set to retain its reputation as the leading international office services provider during 2011.
