Building better housing for Singapore’s migrant workers
Beyond basic accommodation, Tee Up’s migrant worker dormitories aim to create a welcoming, community-oriented environment
[SINGAPORE] Since its founding in 2006, Tee Up Capital has aimed to transform the landscape of migrant worker housing in Singapore.
“When Tee Up first began operating, there wasn’t much of a dormitory industry to speak of,” recalled CEO Kelvin Low.
At the time, living conditions in dormitories were poor, with many of these being old factory spaces with few amenities and inadequate fire safety features, he said.
