KPMG in Singapore buys Rainmaker Labs

It aims to offer clients a mobile-first, end-to-end suite of solutions for firms’ digital development.

KPMG in Singapore acquired the Singapore and Vietnam businesses of Rainmaker Labs, a Singapore headquartered enterprise mobile application developer and consultancy. “Financial terms of the acquisition will not be disclosed,” it said.

According to a statement, this acquisition is part of KPMG’s investment to offer clients a mobile-first, end-to-end suite of digital solutions ranging from creation and development to the deployment of digital platforms and applications in Southeast Asia.

KPMG’s move will serve businesses capitalising on the transformative opportunities provided by digital and mobile technologies and seeking regional growth opportunities. It will also enhance KPMG’s capabilities in mobile, cloud services, managed services and digital ledger (blockchain), augmenting the firm’s existing digital capabilities.

KPMG in Singapore managing partner Ong Pang Thye said “We are really excited about the opportunities that this acquisition presents. It firmly plugs us into the opportunities of the ASEAN digital economy in serving our local and multinational clients.”

“This acquisition primes us to scale our in-house digital capabilities and increase our bench strength in digital innovation, co-creation and solutions deployment, creating a powerhouse of end-to-end digital transformation services and enterprise solutions,” he added.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
