Synapxe, A*STAR partner for health tech innovation in Singapore

The agencies will develop a pilot project to onboard APOLLO onto AimSG.

Singapore's HealthTech agency Synapxe and the Agency for Science, Technology, and Research (A*STAR) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to drive collaboration and scalable innovation within Singapore's healthcare ecosystem.

The MoU aims to address common challenges in healthcare administration, identify emerging technologies, and co-create scalable solutions for deployment into the healthcare system.

Under the partnership, the agencies will develop a pilot project to onboard APOLLO onto AimSG, a common platform for the rapid development, testing, and deployment of artificial intelligence (AI) imaging models. 

APOLLO, an AI-enabled CT scan interpretation software, has demonstrated its ability to slash manual CT scan interpretation time, typically ranging from one to four hours, to under 10 minutes. It was co-developed by A*STAR together with its partners Duke-NUS Medical School, Nanyang Technological University, National Heart Centre Singapore, National University Hospital, and Tan Tock Seng Hospital.

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.
