Global expansion for the new unicorn: Introducing GlobalX Center

To coordinate this unparalleled expansion, Amber Group appointed its partner, Annabelle Huang, as a leader of a dedicated unit, GlobalX Center.

To build a truly global platform and serve a diversified user pool, we need dedicated efforts within different geographies to deliver customized and relevant products and services to our users. We are setting up a new Global X Center initiative to focus solely on expanding our overseas user base through localized strategies and offerings. This is a top priority for our team this year.

Michael Wu, co-founder and CEO of Amber Group, prioritizes expansion to the U.K. and U.S. markets and improving the user experience for the entire Amber App userbase:

We pride ourselves in being a truly global and diverse organization. It is important for us to work with clients across the US and UK markets because of the value they bring to the financial market. In order to meet client demand, our team will continue expanding global operations while developing market solutions for leading crypto investors and companies.
