Real estate tech firm Juwai IQI to hire over a thousand staff for data and tech team in MY Details 26 February 2021
Asian real estate technology group Juwai IQI has made Kuala Lumpur its headquarters for global R&D and plans to build a data and tech team locally. The team is expected to eventually have more than 1,000 employees. Malaysia was chosen as the R&D headquarters due to its larger workforce compared to Singapore, universal English proficiency and a far-sighted outlook on its digitalisation trajectory , Juwai IQI co-founder and group executive chairman Georg Chmiel (pictured left) said.

There are 400 million mobile users in ASEAN, which is important because mobile is the platform on which we are building the advanced services that will power our future growth. The United States has just 276 million mobile users, Chmiel explained.
