Bynder first Australian office to power regional growth
Dutch technology firm Bynder has expanded into Australia. The company has opened an office in Melbourne, Victoria to meet the demand for digital asset management in the APAC region.
Serving clients in a fast-growing region
Bynder’s products help organisations manage, share and control access to their digital assets. Founded in 2013, the company has 500-plus staff in 8 offices worldwide. Its clients include Spotify, Puma and Icelandair.
In Australia, Bynder’s clients include Queensland Health and Australia for UNHCR. Expanding to Australia is a strategic move to scale its business in a fast-growing region.
‘This past year we have already grown significantly in APAC,’ says Bob Hickey, CEO of Bynder. ‘We believe the office in Melbourne will allow us to better serve and represent these customers and partners while continuing to expand our reach in the region.’
‘We’re excited to join the thriving tech community in Melbourne,’ says Everline ter Elst, Director of APAC Sales. ‘We already see incredible demand in the market, and I look forward to building on that momentum through the expansion of our customer base and our regional team.’
Bynder expects to hire 30 full-time permanent staff by the end of 2024.
