ITechLaw Announces Razer Founder, CEO & Creative Director as 50th Anniversary Award Recipient for International Asia-Pacific Conference

The International Technology Law Association (ITechLaw) this year celebrates 50 years of being the leading global organization for legal professionals focused on technology and law. To mark this occasion, international members of ITechLaw have chosen to make an outstanding achievement award for contribution to the field of technology and law, for each of the 4 global conferences this year, the fourth of which was presented at the 2023 International Asia-Pacific Conference, 8-10 March 2023 in Singapore.

We are honored to announce that Tan Min-Liang, Founder, CEO and Creative Director of Razer has been selected as the fourth recipient of this global award and recognition for his outstanding contribution to technology and law. Min-Liang stands as an inspiring model of how a technology lawyer can extend and transcend the role of legal advisor to become a titan in the frontline of the technology industry. 

Min-Liang Tan is a Singaporean businessman, internet entrepreneur and former lawyer. He is the co-founder, chairman, chief executive officer (CEO) and creative director of the gaming hardware company Razer Inc. where he oversees the design and development of all Razer products. With a fan base that spans every continent, the company (now valued over $2.5Bn) has designed and built the world’s largest gamer-focused ecosystem of hardware, software and services. 

Tan was a lawyer before he co-founded Razer at Rajah & Tann Asia and has been on the forefront of legal policy making as a previous board member of the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore. He is also a founding member of the Open Source Virtual Reality platform, which aims to create a common standard for VR program design.

Congratulations to Tan Min-Liang!
