LEAPing to the ACE Market: Strategy, Challenges, and Gains

What does it take to transition from the LEAP Market to the ACE Market? In this episode of P&L, we speak with Tommy Lim, Managing Director and CEO of ICT Zone Asia, and Alex Te, Co-founder of Impact Advisory, about ICT Zone Asia’s ambitious plans to make the leap by 2025.

We explore why ICT Zone Asia initially chose the LEAP Market, the benefits of moving to ACE, and how this move aligns with the company’s broader growth strategy. Tommy and Alex also share insights into the operational and regulatory challenges of such a transition, the importance of clear communication with stakeholders, and the common pitfalls businesses must avoid.
