Asteria Technology Pte Ltd

Asteria Corporation was established in 1998 by President and CEO HIRANO Yoichiro (Pina) and Executive Vice President and CTO KITAHARA Yoshiyuki.

Back in 1998, the internet use among enterprises had just begun to take off.

Hirano and Kitahara envisioned a future in which businesses would leverage the internet and related technologies to connect systems inside and outside the company and accomplish various work-related tasks. The new XML technology had just been created in 1998 as a common computer language for these tasks, and these two men’s belief in the huge possibilities of XML is the reason they started Asteria.
