About Us
Intchess Asia has been the premier Chess academy in Singapore for over 20 years. Intchess Asia was conceived by our pioneer leaders notably Mr. Ignatius Leong in 1998 before officially registering Intchess Asia Pte Ltd in 2002. Our trainers have been involved in many countries and our core team has about 10 years’ worth of experience in delivering chess training with international involvement.
We have produced top teams and players at schools, national and international levels. While mentoring and grooming top talent in Chess with our team, we have a strong emphasis on character development that makes us the preferred Chess academy for MOE and international Schools in Singapore.
We have worked on interesting projects on various Enrichment Programs e.g. Math & Chess Program, Logic & Chess, Programming Chess, and Character and Citizenship Education (CCE) Chess enrichment programs for schools. By being an active participant and service provider, the value of Chess is seen and appreciated beyond the traditional frameworks, such as Chess in education and enabling the use of technology and introducing computational thinking to students.
This transitions us into a cross-disciplinary domain where we are supported by modern disciplines such as complexity science. This greatly adds value to our work as it benefits students and society in various dimensions.
