About the Awards

The Techblazer Awards is the nation’s highest accolade for tech innovation and aims to provide recognition and endorsement to Singapore-based organisations that have exemplified the spirit of innovation in their development of tech products and services, or their use of tech to achieve excellence. The Awards also aim to spur greater innovation from the winning companies and propel them to greater heights in the region and internationally, with the hopes that these companies will also blaze the trail for others.

The Awards, which was started in 2018, is a merger of the bi-annual National Infocomm Awards (NIA) by then-Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA), and the annual SiTF Awards by then-Singapore Infocomm Technology Federation (SiTF), to strengthen and accelerate digital transformation efforts.

Techblazer Awards 2021 is the fourth run of the Techblazer Awards with last year seeing a total of 11 winners across all categories
