Tencent moves into CapitaSky tower to consolidate more staff

Staff at the social media and gaming conglomerate moved into CapitaSky, a 29-storey tower in the Central Business District (CBD), this week from a WeWork office at 30 Raffles Place, according to people familiar with the matter.

A Tencent spokesperson confirmed the company has moved staff to the new location.

For now, Tencent is taking up one floor, or about half of a 56,000 sq ft flexible working space, in the tower. The firm may eventually move staff from another co-working centre at nearby CapitaSpring tower when the lease ends to the new space, said the people.
