Singapore eyes building green data centre

This is in partnership with Huawei and Keppel Data Centres.

The Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) announced strategic partnerships with Huawei, Keppel Data Centres.

The deal’s aim is to enhance industry collaboration, enable local companies to scale globally, empower the workforce with skills relevant for the digital economy as well as equipping companies with the technology and knowledge to build strong digital capabilities in a sustainable manner.

Huawei, IMDA, and Keppel Data Centres will keep their focus on a two-year strategic collaboration to explore the technical feasibility of a first-of-its-kind high-rise green data centre building.

Meanwhile, IMDA and Huawei will collaborate to further push the growth of local small-and-medium sized enterprises (SMEs), by leveraging Huawei’s technical expertise and facilities, go-to-market opportunities and global business network.

Additionally, the IMDA and Huawei will jointly promote deeper talent and capability building among local information and communications technology (ICT) students.

This initiative will include 45 overseas training stints and internship opportunities for students to explore new capabilities in technology areas critical to the future such as the Internet of Things, 5G, and cybersecurity.

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.
