With over 15 years of experience in enterprise technology and digital transformation, Ong brings a unique blend of strategic vision and operational expertise to her role at one of APAC’s fastest-growing Microsoft partners.

"Tiffany’s appointment reflects our commitment to helping APAC businesses harness Microsoft’s full technology stack," said Wild Tech CEO Marcus Tan. "Her expertise in change management and digital adoption will be invaluable as we scale our operations."
The APAC Digital Transformation Landscape
Singapore’s digital economy is projected to grow to $22 billion by 2025, with Microsoft technologies playing a central role in this expansion. Wild Tech, under Ong’s leadership, is positioning itself to capitalize on several key trends:
