For more than five decades, Hitachi High-Tech (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. has been a driving force in Southeast Asia’s technology landscape, serving as the Hitachi High-Tech Group’s first office in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations region.
Today, it continues to lead regional operations from Singapore, delivering precision technologies, innovative solutions and trusted partnerships across critical industries.
“Singapore’s strategic location, political stability and robust infrastructure make it an ideal base for regional operations,” said Genichiro Yamaguchi, managing director of Hitachi High-Tech Singapore.
“We’ve been here since 1972, and over the past 50 years, we’ve built deep relationships and regional expertise that set us apart.”
As the regional headquarters, Hitachi High-Tech Singapore supports subsidiaries across ASEAN and India through centralized leadership, operational oversight, shared services and talent development. This setup ensures consistency and agility across diverse and fast-changing markets.
The company’s core strength lies in our global network as well as observation, measurement and analysis technologies, with applications in semiconductors, health care and industrial infrastructure.
Its product portfolio includes globally recognized systems, such as metrology and inspection systems using electron beam and optical technology, and conductor etch systems essential to semiconductor manufacturing.
“Innovation is at the heart of our strategy,” Yamaguchi said. “We continuously invest in R&D and digital transformation to develop cutting-edge solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers and society.”
The Singapore government’s focus on research and development, digitalization and artificial intelligence under its Research, Innovation and Enterprise 2025 Plan has also enhanced the company’s ability to collaborate and co-create within a highly connected ecosystem.
Leveraging the “One Hitachi” approach, Hitachi High-Tech integrates cross-functional expertise from across the Hitachi Group to deliver meaningful value and help build a sustainable society.
Looking ahead to the rest of 2025 and 2026, the company is focused on growth in emerging markets like India and Vietnam, where the semiconductor industry is expanding rapidly.
“We’re strengthening local partnerships, enhancing technical support and exploring new opportunities in back-end processes, data center solutions and global sourcing,” Yamaguchi said.
With a strong foundation in precision technology and a forward-looking strategy, Hitachi High-Tech Singapore continues to play a key role in advancing the region’s innovation landscape.
By combining global expertise with local insight, the company is well-positioned to support Asia’s evolving industries and contribute to long-term, sustainable growth.
