About Us

 

Headquartered in Singapore, Dimension Data Asia Pacific was founded in 1974 and today operates in more than 60 major offices across 13 Asia Pacific countries. We help clients plan, build, support, manage, improve and innovate their IT infrastructures. Datacraft combines an expertise in networking, security, data centre, storage, Microsoft solutions and converged communications & contact centre technologies, with advanced skills in consulting, integration, training and managed services to craft IT solutions for businesses.

 

In 1997, Dimension Data extended its outreach into Asia Pacific when it acquired a 51% stake in Dimension Data Asia Pacific (formerly known as Datacraft Asia) and became the company’s majority shareholder. In November 2008, Dimension Data acquired 100% ownership of Dimension Data Asia Pacific and positioned it as a stronger force.

 

In October 2010, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT), one of the largest global telecommunications service providers, acquired 100% of Dimension Data plc for GBP 2.1 billion, making Dimension Data a wholly-owned subsidiary of the NTT Group.
