Singapore and UAE deepen collaborations on tech and skills development

The government will help UAE in digital trade documents, fintech, and other innovations.

Singapore and the United Arab Emirates reaffirmed their future collaborations which include science and technology, industry development, and skills development.

In a statement, the government said the Global Innovation Alliance (GIA) node in Abu Dhabi was put up by Enterprise Singapore for Singapore firms to access growing areas and connect with business and tech communities in the region.

Under the plans, Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) will also collaborate with Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) on Phase II of the exchange of digital trade documents.

NUS Asian Institute of Digital Finance and ADGM Academy will also collaborate on Fintech solutions.

A strategic partnership was also signed between NIE International and Emirates College for Advanced Education (ECAE) to cooperate in the education sector in areas such as governance and policy, training programs and capacity building.

A potential collaboration in green and digital shipping and initiatives to enhance food trade were also talked about between the two territories.

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.
