EDB works with Johnson & Johnson to innovate SG’s life sciences

The collaboration backs early-stage firms and fast track innovative medicines.

Johnson & Johnson Innovation and the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) will collaborate to support life sciences innovation in the city-state. 

“This collaboration is the first of its kind and will leverage Johnson & Johnson Innovation – JLABS’ services and innovation resources aimed at boosting the region’s innovation output,” read the statement.

JLABS will support early-stage firms with a location in Singapore to speed up their discoveries into innovative medicines, medical technologies, and healthcare solutions. 

JLABS will also collaborate with local incubators and other strategic partners in the ecosystem on venture and talent development offerings to develop employment and commercialisation opportunities for early-stage companies.

The partnership complies with J&J’s commitment to speed up science and technology development in the Asia Pacific region, with the goal of addressing critical healthcare needs.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
