A Glimpse into the Organization

Established in 2010, REVEZ Corporation started with REVEZ Motion, a game-changer in interactive multimedia, which was the brainchild of three founders – Mr. Victor Neo, Mr. Lawrence Lim, and Mr. Wayne Lee. The multi-talented trio started with a clear vision to create a world where people and technology work in harmony to optimize business efficiency, by continuously pushing the boundaries of innovation and leading the CreativeTech landscape.

“‘REVEZ’ is inspired by the French word, ‘to dream’. This captures the founder’s original vision that the creative application of technology can realize your wildest dreams, as long as you dare to dream out of the box,” shares Victor.

REVEZ Motion was an early adopter of Augmented Reality and worked with a large MNC for roving event activation. It was one of the first to integrate Facebook’s (now called “META”) social sharing function with an interactive photo booth. The company implemented the first virtual concierge with an automated kiosk, for one of Asia’s largest real estate groups. Within a short span of 4 years, REVEZ Motion was accoladed with a Singapore Outstanding Enterprise Award. 

Under Victor’s guidance as CEO, REVEZ Motion has grown from a small start-up to an award-winning B2B Technology firm, REVEZ Corporation Ltd (collectively called “REVEZ Group”), listed on Singapore Stock Exchange (SGX) in less than 10 years.
