Zurich, Switzerland (June 20, 2019) – IMD International Search Group develops presence in the Asia Pacific region with a new partner office in Singapore.

Richard Hoon is an expert in this rapidly growing market where he founded I Search Worldwide in 2002 after having been in the search business for almost 25 years. Prior to becoming a search consultant, Richard was a senior corporate executive managing commercially operating businesses.
