Homage wins Start-up Innovation award

Homage, the regional technology-led caregiving and health platform, is the winner of Channel Asia’s Innovation Awards 2021 in the Start-up Innovation (sector) award. Start-up Innovation recognises market-leading start-ups building unique businesses to bring innovative new technologies to the ASEAN market.

Homage was recognised for its efficient and transparent technology-driven care and health services platform. To address the COVID-19 induced disruptions to caregiving in 2020, the company launched a new service segment, Homage Health, which was designed to provide medical services such as mobile medicine, teleconsultation, and medication delivery. Homage Health contributed to bridging the gap in the end-to-end care recipient journey, integrating across hospital health, community and home care.

 A testament to its success, Homage experienced significant growth in 2021 with regional business outside its Singapore headquarters growing more than 600 percent year-over-year and the group more than tripling its revenue in the past year. Currently with almost 200 global employees, Homage has expanded to Malaysia and Australia with plans for further global expansion. It also has plans for 2022 as it works on several announcements and new service innovations.
