Microsoft has appointed Chia Wee Luen as its new managing director for Singapore, succeeding Lee Hui Li.

In his new role, Wee Luen will lead the company’s operations in Singapore, with a focus on advancing the nation’s digital ambitions through cloud and artificial intelligence (AI).

He will work closely with customers, partners, and government stakeholders to accelerate innovation and inclusive transformation.

Most recently, he served as managing director for Asia at ServiceNow.

Microsoft ASEAN president Mayank Wadhwa said Singapore is a cornerstone for the company in Southeast Asia.

“Under Wee Luen’s leadership, we will empower our customers to harness the full power of technology to drive meaningful impact and unlock the region’s extraordinary potential,” Wadhwa said.

Wee Luen, who brings more than 20 years of experience in enterprise technology, said he is passionate about enabling customers, partners, and communities.

“I’m honoured to join Microsoft Singapore at this pivotal moment. I look forward to working with the team, our partner ecosystem and visionary customers to capitalise on this transformative era of AI and continue shaping Singapore’s future together,” he said.

Wee Luen began his career in Singapore’s public sector before moving into senior leadership positions across Red Hat, Qlik, and Oracle.

He also contributes to the community through his roles on the Digital & Technology Committee of the Children’s Cancer Foundation and as chair of the Tech for Good Committee at the Singapore Computer Society.
