HONG KONG, March 3, 2025 – Tencent Cloud, the cloud division of global technology company Tencent, today announced a strategic partnership with Trident Digital Tech Holdings Ltd (“Trident”), a Singapore-based company focused on digital transformation services and Web 3.0 activation.
As part of this collaboration, Trident will migrate its entire digital service operations onto Tencent Cloud’s infrastructure and incorporate advanced metaverse solutions. This partnership marks a significant step toward digital innovation, positioning Trident as Tencent Cloud’s pioneering Metaverse-in-a-Box customer in Singapore. The partnership is expected to enhance Trident’s flagship product, Tridentity, a blockchain-based identity solution.
Tencent Cloud’s Infrastructure Powers Tridentity
Trident will leverage Tencent Cloud’s comprehensive suite of products, including Cloud Virtual Machine (CVM), TencentDB, EdgeOne, Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP), Cloud Load Balancer (CLB), Elastic IP (EIP), Tencent Kubernetes Engine (TKE), and Elasticsearch Service (ES).
Trident aims to serve millions of monthly active users by 2025, targeting the rapidly growing markets of Southeast Asia and Africa. With Tencent Cloud’s robust infrastructure, Trident intends to fuel this expansion with secure, state-of-the-art technology.
Secure Experiences and Immersive Metaverse Interactions
To meet tight campaign timelines and maintain efficiency, Trident is prioritizing application platform development. This requires a highly scalable, managed, and secure cloud infrastructure to support its business operations.
By utilizing Tencent Cloud Blockchain as a Service (TBaaS), Trident will ensure a scalable infrastructure and a comprehensive security suite to mitigate operational risks. The partnership will also grant use of Tencent Cloud’s Metaverse-in-a-Box, designed to deliver a seamless customer experience across various Southeast Asian sectors. This solution includes high-performance products like EdgeOne to accelerate services and protect APIs from threats, supporting a seamless customer experience throughout the region.
Trident has already used Tencent Cloud’s technologies to create large-scale, secure, and immersive real-time interactive experiences, including an online metaverse showcased during the 2024 Singapore National Day Parade (NDP). As a Principal Partner for the NDP, Trident built a large metaverse with various games and landmarks. Tencent Cloud’s support enabled Trident to scale its cloud infrastructure swiftly, allowing thousands of players to enjoy the Trident metaverse.
Ken Siow, General Manager for Singapore & Malaysia, Tencent Cloud International, stated, “We are pleased to be chosen as Trident’s partner in accelerating Singapore’s digital transformation.
