Ryde Group becomes first Singaporean ride-hailing start-up to IPO at NYSE

The group participated  in the ringing of the closing bell at the NYSE on 4 April.

Ryde Group Ltd’s senior management team participated in the ringing of the closing bell in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on 4 April 2024.

The company said in a statement that this was to celebrate its initial public offering (IPO) in March, and to honour Ryde Group as the first Singaporean ride-hailing start-up to IPO on the NYSE.

Among those present were CEO and Founder Terence Zou, CFO Chen Fei Lang, and CTO Nitin Dolli.

Ryde Group’s IPO sold 3,000,000 Class A ordinary shares at $5.394 (US$4.00) apiece for a total of $16.18m (US$12m) of gross proceeds.

Zou said “a significant portion” of the proceeds will be used to bring the Ryde Group into new geographic markets and to invest in technological improvements. This will be vital in “accelerating the future revenue and operational growth” of the company, he noted.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
