US AI company Anthropic has established its fifth office in the Asia-Pacific region in Singapore, marking a further expansion of the safety-focused AI developer's regional footprint. Alongside the opening, the company said it will cooperate with the Singaporean government on AI safety and evaluation.
The Singapore office becomes Anthropic's fifth Asia-Pacific location, adding to the company's growing presence in the region. Anthropic, the developer of the Claude family of large language models (LLM), has positioned AI safety research and evaluation as a core part of its operations.
A central element of the new outpost is collaboration with the Singaporean government on AI safety and evaluation. The partnership signals Singapore's continued push to position itself as a hub for AI governance in Southeast Asia, and gives Anthropic a direct channel to work with policymakers on testing and assessing AI systems.
The move reflects a broader pattern among frontier AI labs of establishing regional offices near government partners to support regulatory engagement and deployment of their models across Asian markets.
The claim checks out as True.
