Sansan Inc., a Japanese provider of cloud-based solutions will be opening its Sansan Global Development Center in Cebu, Philippines. The center is established to strengthen the development of Sansan’s product functions for global markets.

Sansan aims to accelerate its overseas product expansion, including its namesake sales DX solution Sansan and online invoice-receiving solution Bill One, with a focus on the Southeast Asian (SEA) region. Through its overseas subsidiary Sansan Global Pte. Ltd. (Sansan Global), the company is expanding the availability of Sansan and Bill One solutions in countries like Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia.

To speed up its global ambitions, Sansan must increasingly respond to the needs of local customers in each country. This will require greater investments into multi-language support teams and the development of unique functions in line with each country’s laws and regulations, systems, business customs, and workflows.

“The Philippines is actively attracting and supporting global IT companies, and Cebu is known for its high-level IT education and large pool of talented engineers,” said Fujikura Shigemoto, executive officer and head of Overseas Establishment Team of Sansan Inc. “The center’s opening will let us strengthen regional recruitment of engineers and improve our development environment overseas.”

The center is scheduled to open its doors in early 2023. Under its mission of “turning encounters into innovation” and vision to “become business infrastructure” for companies around the world, Sansan will continue developing world-class products in both its home market of Japan and internationally.
