Technology company Dyson has officially moved into its new global headquarters in Singapore at the historic St James Power Station, with Dyson founder James ...

The company has been producing digital motors in Singapore since 2004, and opened its first office with 10 employees here at Science Park in 2007. Dyson currently employs over 1,400 people in Singapore, of which 560 are engineers and scientists. "If you look at Dyson products, the first time the bladeless fan was introduced, I heard people didn't even know it was a fan," he explained. It was gazetted as a national monument in 2009, and was secured as head office by Dyson in 2019, shortly after the company abandoned widely-publicised plans to build an electric car in Singapore. It opened a studio at the Nanyang Technological University in 2018 to provide students with the equipment and environment to develop engineering solutions to real-world problems. The 29-year-old joined Dyson in 2018 after obtaining a physics degree and was later sponsored by the company to complete a robotics nanodegree.

If you are at an office or shared network, you can ask the network administrator to run a scan across the network looking for misconfigured or infected devices. If you are on a personal connection, like at home, you can run an anti-virus scan on your device to make sure it is not infected with malware.

I am delighted today to join you here to open Dyson's global headquarters at St James Power Station. This is a milestone in our partnership with Dyson. As you ...

It is also the future for Singapore – to welcome companies and talent, which can help make us a hub of new ideas and scientific progress. Finally, congratulations again to Dyson on the opening of your new global headquarters in Singapore. We look forward to doing much more with you. We are one of the world’s most competitive economies, and a strong social compact underpins our government’s policies and Singapore’s success. But we must work hard to build upon these hard-earned achievements, to strive to stay ahead of our competition. But for Singapore to continue to prosper, beyond getting our economic strategies right, we must also pay close attention to our social policies. This is the future for tech companies – to go wherever talent is available and made welcome. I hope that young Singaporeans will be inspired by science and technology, and go on to be explorers, inventors and pioneers of their generation. A group of young inventors from NUS Engineering recently became the International winner of the James Dyson Award. The team created a wearable device called HOPES – Home Eye Pressure E-Skin Sensor – that uses advanced sensor technology and artificial intelligence to help glaucoma patients monitor their condition easily and painlessly at home. Second, we must continue building a culture of innovation throughout our economy and society, with close collaboration across industry partners, researchers, and government agencies. That is why we have been pioneering new forms of cooperation, such as Digital Economy Agreements, which facilitate cross-border data flows and digital trade, as well as Green Economy Agreements. Each such agreement we conclude serves as a pathfinder for future deals with like-minded countries, just like how the P4 FTA, a free trade agreement between Brunei, Chile, Singapore and New Zealand, progressively evolved into the CPTPP, which currently has 11 members across the Asia Pacific. It also gives parties a shared stake in one another’s success, which in turn contributes to peace and stability. But more importantly, the ethos of our society must remain open – welcoming of new ideas and talent, always learning from others, never becoming resistant to change or complacent about the need to stay ahead. But if we succumb to the temptation to close our doors, we will surely end up hurting ourselves.

It will also house a heritage gallery in one of its distinctive chimneys, and a heritage trail will feature maritime artifacts around the monument. Dyson previously said it would invest nearly S$5 billion in new technology to double its product portfolio and enter new fields "beyond the home" by 2025. It meets the International WELL Building Gold and Green Mark Platinum standards. It then served as Asia's first automated warehouse from 1984 to 1992 and then later became one of Singapore's iconic nightlife spots from 2006 to 2018. "Singapore is at the centre of our global supply chain. It reaffirms our belief that Singapore is the right place for high-tech, research intensive businesses such as Dyson," said founder and chairman James Dyson at the event.
