We recognize their immense potential in the Southeast Asia markets and have strategic plans for further development in the region," added Sion Yip.

Touring Experiences in Asia
Incubase Studio is at the forefront of pushing the limits of physical attractions and experiences, curating captivating and top-tier experiences from concept to realization. They partner with leading entertainment franchises such as animation series One Piece, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen and manga Attack on Titan, as well as Hollywood productions The Conjuring Universe, Frozen and The Minions.

The company is breaking barriers in production with their touring experience model, which features quicker turnaround times, wider geographic distribution by visiting multiple countries annually, and an asset-light approach. This nimbler touring framework makes their productions increasingly attractive to commercial real estate and entertainment facility operators across Asia.

Their touring experiences, such as the One Piece "The Great Era of Piracy" Exhibition Asia Tour, have attracted anime fans from various regions, with plans to expand to more locations across Asia this year. Incubase Studio is also known for curating the highly acclaimed The Conjuring Universe Tour, a heart-pounding walk-through experience featuring set recreations inspired by iconic scenes from the most successful horror franchise of all time. After the launches in Malaysia and Taiwan, this experience exhibition will continue its tour in Asia.
