TPG Singapore was founded in 2016 by Australian businessman David Teoh after winning an auction from Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) for its airwaves rights.

TPG was also expected to provide street level coverage nationwide within 18 months of the start date.

With accordance to IMDA, TPG Singapore would have the right to provide 5G network services, starting 1 January 2022.
