COPA-DATA and LINX Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand start a promising cooperation. Both companies have signed a contract to be the official and only distributor for the zenon Software Platform in the Southeast Asia region.
The manufacturing industry in Southeast Asia (SEA) is currently thriving, with the region becoming a key player in the global manufacturing landscape. As this trend is expected to continue in the coming years, businesses are looking for easy-to-use vendor-agnostic software automation like zenon to expand their manufacturing capabilities.
“Our region is pivoting to be the next region of choice for digital growth. zenon will spearhead LINX SEA's expansion into IIoT and SCADA businesses”, explains Henry Chia, Managing Director of LINX Singapore. “This taps on our existing network and enables LINX to make a bigger footprint in the region by offering customers the option to transform their manufacturing nodes, operational processes and business data into the digital domain.”
As a subsidiary of LINX Japan, with whom COPA-DATA already has a very successful distributor partnership for zenon in Japan, LINX Singapore fully covers COPA-DATA's key industries. Founded 2017, LINX Singapore was setup to be the Southeast Asian subsidiary under the LINX group. With Singapore as the Southeast Asia base, a network of offices and partners was setup to serve the fast-growing market.
