Constellar Holdings

What Constellar Holdings does

Constellar Holdings Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore-headquartered MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions) venue management operator incorporated in 2021 with heritage dating to 1978. The company manages Singapore EXPO, the nation's largest purpose-built MICE venue — 100,000 sqm of column-free indoor and outdoor space across 10 interconnected exhibition halls and 32 meeting rooms (including the MAX Atria convention wing). Constellar is the sole operator of this asset and runs it on renewable energy infrastructure including one of Asia's largest rooftop solar PV installations and a 20-station EV charging hub.

The company's revenue derives from four streams: venue rental and space management at Singapore EXPO; event organization and management fees for owned trade exhibitions; catering and F&B partnerships; and event registration/admission fees. Its owned event portfolio is the strategic core: Singapore FinTech Festival (co-organised with MAS and Elevandi, 66,000 participants from 150 countries in 2023), Industrial Transformation Asia-Pacific (with Deutsche Messe), Agri-Food Tech Expo Asia, the newly launched Process Innovation Asia-Pacific (with DECHEMA), BuildTech Asia, AtoZero ASEAN, and the Consumer Electronics Exhibition. GTM is enterprise field sales and event-driven: Constellar sells long-term venue management contracts directly to corporate event organisers, government agencies (Singapore Tourism Board, MAS), and trade associations, leveraging international memberships in UFI, ICCA, IAEE, SACEOS, and AIPC. Pricing is per-event, not publicly disclosed, with full payment required prior to event commencement.

Constellar is privately held by Temasek Holdings and Cuscaden Peak Investments (formerly Singapore Press Holdings). The company holds Platinum-level SACEOS MICE Sustainability Certification, BCA Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy, ISO 9001/14001/22301/45001, AIPC Quality Standards Gold, and Events Industry Council Sustainable Event Standards Gold. Operations span Singapore with first regional expansion into Malaysia via AtoZero ASEAN 2023.
