Jay Lee

Jay is a Principal and has been based in our Singapore office since he joined the company in 2013. He has worked with a wide range of industry players across the Asia–Pacific region, on topics including commercial due diligence, capex optimisation, business planning, regulation, data-centre technology and AI.

Jay is a Singapore native and specialises in Asia–Pacific technology and telecoms markets. He has worked on a wide range of digital infrastructure assets, including fibre networks, mobile towers and, more recently, data-centre and cloud service providers. Jay also has a long history of working closely with regulatory bodies, helping to shape the ideal environment for the region’s flourishing media and telecoms markets. Jay enjoys exploring and shedding light on evolving trends in a way that helps our clients to anticipate and capitalise on specific emerging opportunities, typified by his recent study on the impact of AI on the data-centre market in New Zealand.

Jay enjoys seeing how his analysis and insights translate into concrete results and real-world change. His past experience includes working closely with a data analytics specialist to help a mobile network operator (MNO) to optimise its capex investments. The big-data approach developed by Analysys Mason was used to demonstrate an 11% improvement in return on investment compared to a more conventional approach using only traffic congestion to determine site prioritisation.

In addition to being an enthusiastic collector of vinyl records, Jay holds a Bachelor's degree in Government and Economics from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) where he graduated with first-class honours and was awarded the Convenor's Prize for best overall performance in his course.
