Breathing Life into Singapore’s Heritage and Beyond

Who We Are

Our Success Story

Established in 2014, 8M has built its reputation on the acquisition and restoration of heritage shophouses in Singapore, preserving their historical charm while transforming them into vibrant, modern spaces that meet contemporary needs. In our first decade, our success in this niche market laid a strong foundation for growth, earning us recognition for our commitment to quality, creativity, and cultural preservation. Our strategic vision has since broadened to encompass a wider range of real estate opportunities, acknowledging the dynamic landscape of Singapore’s property market and the potential for new avenues of expansion.

Global Network and Best Practices

We are supported by one of the world's top-performing institutional investors, with over US$200 billion of assets under management. This backing ensures our financial stability and a long-term commitment to our platform. Additionally, it gives us access to a network of real estate operating companies in over 90 countries across 6 continents. This well-diversified global portfolio enables knowledge sharing and the implementation of best practices across our business.

Looking Ahead

As we enter the next chapter, we look forward to embracing new opportunities. We envision an organisation that reimagines the concept of 'live, work, play' through a fresh perspective, driven by a dedicated team committed to fostering growth and innovation.
