Grab’s New HQ in Singapore: A Big Move
Grab is stepping up its game by building its own headquarters in Singapore, with a price tag of S$181.2 million. This new hub will be a company‑wide hive where all Grab employees in Singapore can work side‑by‑side.
Why the One‑North Location?
Situated inside the bustling One‑North business park, the new building sits among hotbeds for biotech, infocommunications, and media. It’s the perfect spot for a tech company that wants to keep pace with the future.
A Green Dream
- Grab and Ascendas Reit aim to create a green‑friendly building, hoping to snag the Green Mark GoldPlus award from the Building and Construction Authority.
- Think lush greenery on the ground, sky‑high terraces dotted with plants, and communal spaces that encourage friendly conversations.
- Employees can also roll in on bicycles; the HQ will feature bike parking, showers, and lockers to make commuting a breeze.
What’s Inside?
The HQ will host Grab’s largest R&D centre. That means more room for tinkering, testing, and turning wild ideas into reality.
Timeline
Grab plans to open the doors by the fourth quarter of 2020. Until then, we’ll just have to imagine the positives of a brand‑new, eco‑smart workplace.
