As the Philippines continues to be a global player for foreign locators and investors, opportunities continue to be explored in various parts of the country. Such is the case for Sansan, Inc. as it recently announced the establishment of its global development center in Cebu.
Sansan, Inc is a Japanese provider of cloud-based solutions that promote digital transformation (DX) and reshape how work is being done. With its center in the Philippines, the company aims to accelerate its overseas product expansion, including its namesake sales DX solution Sansan and online invoice receiving solution Bill One, with a focus on Southeast Asia.
Fujikura Shigemoto, Executive Officer, Head of Overseas Establishment Team of Sansan, Inc., said its expansion in the country strengthens its product development for the markets it serves abroad. “The Philippines is actively attracting and supporting global IT companies, and Cebu is known for its high-level IT education and large pool of talented engineers. The Center’s opening will let us strengthen regional recruitment of engineers and improve our development environment overseas,” he said.
According to a press release, the Japanese tech unicorn requires greater investments into multi-language support teams to achieve its global ambitions while serving local customers in each country. Aside from this, Sansan also needs to develop unique functions that are country-specific and in with their respective laws and regulations, systems, business customs, and workflows.
The new Sansan Center is scheduled to open its doors in early 2023 with Mr. Fujikura, in hopes of developing world-class products in both its home market of Japan and internationally.
