UK-headquartered travel and events solutions provider ATPI is bolstering its presence in the Asia-Pacific region with the launch of several new offices.
The company is establishing four new locations across India and one in Balikpapan, Indonesia. Further strengthening its regional network, ATPI is also opening new offices in Shanghai, Taipei, and Seoul.
In Indonesia, the new office in Balikpapan positions ATPI in the heart of the oil, gas, and mining industries, while Chennai’s expansion taps into southern India’s booming IT sector.
Meanwhile, the company’s insights in tech-driven industries in mainland China, for example, will help boost travel demand in its AI, electric vehicle and renewable energy sectors. Taiwan is a technology-led, export-focused economy, while South Korea is ranked sixth among 133 economies featured in the 2024 Global Innovation Index, making both markets ideal for corporate travel.
Ali Hussain, managing director, ATPI Asia, said: “Our growth underlines ATPI’s longstanding commitment to Asia’s rapidly evolving travel and events landscape. The new markets are of strategic importance as they permit us to fully cater to our regional clients, share our know-how on domestic market essentials and support them with customised, industry-leading solutions”.
The scaling-up supports the company’s long-term vision to better serve both regional and international clients through a robust global network and local partnerships. This comes at a time as the Asian corporate travel market is steady regional growth – valued at US$737.1 billion in 2024 and projected to reach US$848.2 billion by 2025, according to a GBTA report.
“Our expanded presence in Asia enables us to sharpen our objective and ensure our strengths and strategies are in line with any challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. They allow us to be closer to our clients and be ideally positioned to meet regional business travel needs with agility, precision and confidence,” he added.
ATPI operates across a variety of specialist sectors, with core service offerings in corporate travel, marine & energy, and event management.
