About us

About
Haymarket HQ

We help global companies expand across the Asia-Pacific without the costs, complexity, or risk of building full-time local teams. 

Our programs have helped hundreds of companies.


What sets us apart is our broad experience, purpose-driven model, and commitment to shared success. We work with businesses that make a positive impact, offering flexible, performance-linked partnerships that reduce your risk and align us with your growth.

We intentionally stay small, working with only a few clients at a time to ensure every project gets the focus it deserves. Aside from working directly with companies, we also partner with governments to run market-entry programs for startups and SMEs.

We’ve helped over 1,000 companies explore and grow in Australia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore, China, and South Korea

2016

Founded

We were founded in late 2016 with a clear mission: to help ambitious companies expand across the Asia-Pacific region with less risk and more impact.

Backed by seed funding from the NSW Government and the Banna Family Office, we established a physical coworking and soft-landing space to support market entry and cross-border growth.

In our early years, we launched our first market-entry programs in partnership with leading organisations including the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Alibaba, KPMG, and Australia Post.

2018 and beyond

Growth

As our footprint grew, we became the official partner of the Singaporean government to help their companies enter the Australian market.

We also pioneered our “country manager-as-a-service” model to give global businesses a smarter, more flexible way to establish a presence in ANZ without the overhead of permanent hires.

Since then, we have supported a large variety of businesses, from tech companies to wineries, to expand all across the Asia Pacific.

One day you're helping an ASX listed tech company expand into Singapore, the next you're supporting a truffle producer to expand into Vietnam or a startup to validate their product in Australia.
