Expected long term effects
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** Project has resulted in several dialogues between participants and Singaporean actors in identifying and exploring new collaboration opportunities, and the effects have been as expected. Meetings during the program have resulted in dialogues about R&D with private/public actors, international market expansion with interest organizations, pilot projects/PoCs with infrastructure operators, investments and other types of collaborations. Knowledge acquisition from relevant mobility actors on new trends in the region has also been secured.
Approach and implementation
All phases of the project have been carried out in accordance with the original project plan. The selection process took longer than expected, which is positive given the great response. The delegation trip was carried out in March (originally planned in January) Overall, the program has been carried out without major deviations, and more Singaporean actors than expected became involved in the preparatory phases before the delegation trip. In retrospect, we can state that the interest in further follow-up support was great, and that it would be valuable for future market penetration.
