Singapore is one of the world's most innovative countries with a strong international presence of multinational companies, startup companies, research and banks. Vinnova has therefore identified Singapore as an important country for innovation collaborations, where presence can also pave the way for exchanges with other countries in the region.
- Singapore is a high-tech country with great demand for sustainable innovative solutions. It is also a regional center in South and Southeast Asia. By being on site, we can create opportunities for collaborations that strengthen Sweden's innovative capacity and competitiveness, says Darja Isaksson, director general of Vinnova.
Vinnova will have a person stationed at the Swedish embassy. The assignment consists, among other things, of helping Swedish actors find relevant contacts in Singapore. The establishment of Vinnova's presence in Singapore takes place at the end of September.
Sweden already has a number of innovation collaborations with Singapore through Vinnova's counterpart Enterprise Singapore, including a collaboration between Sweden and other small, smart countries that will accelerate the development of technologies that help the world reach its climate goals. Vinnova is also investing in new collaborations with Singapore in emerging technology solutions.
Vinnova already has a presence in Brussels, Silicon Valley and Tel Aviv to promote innovation and international collaborations.
