Workato, the leading and fastest-growing integration-led automation platform, has been accredited by the Infocomm Media Development Authority of Singapore (IMDA).
As a statutory board in the Singapore government, IMDA partners with SG:D Accredited companies to spearhead the strategic use of innovative technology in various sectors. Being accredited will provide assurance to the public, enterprise and commercial organisations in Asia Pacific to use Workato’s unified, no-code/low-code platform to maximise the value of their applications, data and people. The platform makes it easy to integrate disconnected data and applications, and securely automate workflows to accelerate business transformations. To get accredited, Workato had to go through a stringent evaluation on various aspects of the company, fortifying Workato’s credentials of following the highest standards in product development, business practices, data security, sustainability, and scalability.
Presently Workato has 200 employees across the Asia Pacific region and is hiring to support its regional growth plans. It is planning to expand the workforce by 100% in the next 12 months across the region, which includes the expansion of product, sales, customer success teams and services to support the digitalisation of small & large enterprises and the delivery of automation programs.
