Singapore Telecommunications Limited, commonly known as Singtel, is one of Asia’s leading communications technology groups. Originally established through the corporatization of the Telecommunications Authority of Singapore in the early 1990s, the company traces its heritage back to the island’s first telephone exchanges in the late 19th century. Headquartered in Singapore, Singtel has evolved into a diversified provider of telecommunications and digital services both domestically and across the Asia Pacific region.
Singtel’s core business encompasses mobile, fixed-line and broadband services, offering voice and data solutions to consumer and enterprise segments. The company operates under several consumer brands and holds significant stakes in regional carriers such as Bharti Airtel in India, Telkomsel in Indonesia and AIS in Thailand. Its portfolio extends to pay television through mioTV, as well as converged connectivity offerings combining mobile, fixed broadband and digital entertainment under bundled plans.
Beyond traditional telecom services, Singtel has expanded into digital and ICT solutions for businesses. Through its subsidiary NCS, the group provides system integration, cloud computing, cybersecurity and managed services. It also invests in digital marketing, data analytics and fintech ventures to support the digital transformation initiatives of corporate and government clients across Southeast Asia, Australia and beyond. Singtel maintains a global network of submarine cables and data centers, reinforcing its role as a key connectivity hub.
Under the leadership of Group CEO Yuen Kuan Moon and chaired by Chew Thiam Keng, Singtel continues to pursue growth through strategic partnerships, technology innovation and targeted acquisitions.
