Singapore, 10 November 2026 – Rajah & Tann Singapore is strengthening its Technology, Media & Telecommunications (“TMT”) practice with the appointment of Alex Toh as Partner.
Alex advises on technology, data, artificial intelligence (“AI”) and digital regulatory matters, with experience spanning data protection, fintech, e-commerce, intellectual property, information technology and telecommunications. He also advises businesses on complex technology agreements, data breaches, regulatory issues and emerging technology policy.
Alex brings experience from both private practice and the technology sector. He has practised at leading law firms in Singapore and worked with technology companies in Singapore and the United States, including ByteDance, PayPal and Xilinx.
His appointment comes as businesses grapple with fast-moving developments in AI, data governance and digital regulation.
Managing Partner, Ng Kim Beng, said:
“Alex brings a rare mix of legal, technology and industry experience. Having worked both in private practice and within technology companies, he understands the issues from the client’s side as well. That perspective will be valuable as we help businesses tackle increasingly complex technology issues across Singapore and the region.”
Head of TMT practice, Rajesh Sreenivasan, added:
“Technology now runs through almost every part of a business. Our clients’ legal questions rarely come neatly packaged. Alex is comfortable working across technology, regulation and policy, and he understands how these issues connect in practice. That makes him a very natural fit for our team.”
Alex said:
“What drew me to Rajah & Tann is the strength of its TMT practice and the opportunity to work with clients across the region. With AI, data and digital regulation moving so quickly, businesses need advice that makes sense not just legally, but commercially. I’m looking forward to bringing my experience to the team and helping clients work through what these changes mean for them.”
Alex is qualified in Singapore and California and pursued a Master’s degree in Law, Science and Technology at Stanford Law School. He also holds a computer science diploma.
His professional credentials include certification as a Data and Digital Economy Specialist by the Singapore Academy of Law, an AI Ethics & Governance Professional by the Singapore Computer Society, and a Certified Information Privacy Professional/Europe (CIPP/E) by the International Association of Privacy Professionals. Alex has been recognised as one of Asian Legal Business’ Super 50 TMT Lawyers in its 2026 edition.
The firm’s established TMT practice combines legal expertise with technology-led solutions to help businesses and public-sector organisations respond to the challenges of the digital economy. Its work spans technology, data protection, cybersecurity, telecommunications, fintech and digital regulation.
