Grab seizes exclusive control of Hesai Lidar distribution across Southeast Asia

The partnership covers regional sales, support and marketing.

Singapore-based Grab has been appointed as Hesai Technology’s exclusive distributor of lidar products in Southeast Asia, giving Grab responsibility for sales, customer support and marketing across the region, according to a joint press release.

The arrangement makes Grab Hesai’s sole distribution partner in Southeast Asia, covering the supply of lidar sensors to customers across the region.

Hesai’s lidar technology is deployed on Ai.R autonomous vehicles operating in Punggol, Singapore, which the company said is the country’s first autonomous vehicle service for consumers.

The partnership covers applications including robotics and autonomous systems, and supports Grab’s autonomous mobility and mapping work, the companies said.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
