IMDA signs digital economy cooperation MOU with China

Agreement covers data policy, funding and talent exchanges

The Infocomm Media Development Authority of Singapore (IMDA) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with China’s National Data Administration (NDA) and the Chongqing Municipal People’s Government to strengthen digital cooperation.

Under the MOU, the parties will share information on digital and data policies, continue the operationalisation of the China (Chongqing)-Singapore Information Communication Media Joint Innovation Development Fund, and promote business collaboration in areas such as artificial intelligence, blockchain and data analytics. The agreement also supports joint exploration of a “Digital New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor.

The cooperation framework also includes exchanges and capacity-building initiatives for digital economy professionals, aimed at supporting skills development and cross-border collaboration.

The agreement builds on existing cooperation mechanisms, including the China-Singapore (Chongqing) Demonstration Initiative on Strategic Connectivity – New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor (CCI-ILSTC) and the bilateral Digital Policy Dialogue, reinforcing ongoing engagement in the digital economy.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
