It is a far cry from the California suburbs where he grew up, but for second-generation deputy CEO Kyle Borch of Micro-Mechanics, the relocation to Singapore represents more than just a change of address - it is the fulcrum of an ambitious plan to future-proof his father's 40-year-old semiconductor equipment business.
