ALTIOS helps SPS expand their reach into the Asian market

When you’re alone and far away you really need local support and good advice, especially with contracting and navigating complex visa issues. I’m very glad to have the support of ALTIOS.

VP Sales Asia, SPS IN Group
Challenge
  • A small company based in the south of France, SPS was ready to expand sales of their contactless payment technology into Asia by opening an office in Singapore.
  • With no knowledge of the Asian market or local presence, they needed help in the administrative tasks of setting up an entity, as well as recruitment of a new team.
Solution
  • ALTIOS supported SPS in the administration, contracting and bureaucratic liaison necessary to set up an entity in Singapore.
  • ALTIOS continues to manage the bookkeeping, payroll and administrative tasks of the Singapore entity, which has now grown to include the Asian operations of IN Groupe, the company that acquired SPS in 2018.
Results
  • With the entity established in Singapore in 2014, SPS has continued to grow in the APAC region, with local sales representatives now in place in Indonesia and Hong Kong. ALTIOS’ Asia footprint, with offices in Hong Kong, India and Singapore, has been instrumental in helping SPS navigate recruitment – especially dealing with complex visa issues.
