The Singapore government recognises that an economy powered by digital innovation is the biggest driving force for growth and competitiveness. Rising against all odds, the country is quickly transforming itself in its relentless quest to become the heart of global innovation.
In order to enable a culture of Innovation, creating a conducive environment for venture capitalists and MNCs, and the implementation of start-up accelerators such as Launchpad @ one-north and SGInnovate are essential.
