Acer-backed Winking Studios aims to grow global reach with Singapore IPO

GAMING-RELATED company Winking Studios has drawn up plans to boost its international reach and drive its regional expansion. And at the centre of these plans is a listing on the Singapore Exchange (SGX).

The art outsourcing and game development studio, whose operations are largely in mainland China and Taiwan, believes the Singapore listing could improve the company’s standing globally.

“Given Singapore’s strong reputation for regulation, listing here can allow our global clients to have greater trust in us,” said Johnny Jan, chairman and chief executive of Winking, in an interview with The Business Times.
