-
Connections and CollaborationsIn a concerted effort to bridge Singapore's business to research community, we work with the ecosystem to build connections and orchestrate collaborations that nurture a strong network of tech practitioners for innovation.
Technical Sharing Sessions
Our Technical Sharing Sessions are a monthly forum for minds that build the future — connecting researchers, industry, and government to deep dive into AI, Trust and Safety, 5G, Quantum technologies, and Green Software. Together, we explore, challenge, and advance the next wave of technology.
We host focused conferences that spotlight breakthrough research and connect Singapore’s technology community with global experts. Signature events include the AI Research Symposium, Green Software Summit, and Singapore Symposium on NLP — platforms where ideas meet impact and collaborations take shape.
We bring together senior technical leaders from research, industry, and government for focused discussions that tackle complex challenges in emerging technology development and implementation. These closed-door sessions foster candid exchange, strategic insight, and collective problem-solving.
