IE Singapore signs MOUs with Chinese tech firms

It will help Singaporean tech companies gain access to the market.

International Enterprise (IE) Singapore inked two Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) with Chinese tech firms to provide market access to Singaporean companies.

According to a press release, the tech partners consisted of AIRMaker, NTUitive, and 36Kr.

The partnerships will provide support through accelerator programmes that will help firms understand the market, test products, and collaborate with other Chinese firms.

AIRmaker is an accelerator focused on Internet of Things (IoT), healthcare, and AI.

"They will provide resources such as co-working spaces, market network, support and training to facilitate growth and expansion in Beijing and other parts of China," IE Singapore said.

NTUitive will handle research innovations done throughout the partnership.

Meanwhile, 36Kr will provide Singapore tech start-ups with curated accelerator programmes, networks and opportunities to connect to in-market mentors, investors and partners to facilitate growth.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
