ONE and Singapore Maritime Foundation ink talent enhancement deal

Scholarships and internships will be offered.

Ocean Network Express (ONE) and the Singapore Maritime Foundation (SMF) have signed a memorandum of understanding to support talent development in the sector.

Under the deal, ONE will fund at least two MaritimeONE scholarships (including applicable overseas exchange programme) and two MaritimeONE internships per year over three years from 2025 to 2027.

These will be managed and marketed by SMF, with both parties jointly selecting the candidates.

This initiative is under SMF’s programmes under the MaritimeONE umbrella, which aims to connect youths and young adults with the maritime industry.

SMF Executive Director Tan Beng Tee said the partnership “comes at a pivotal juncture as the industry transitions into a future where technology is pervasive and shipping becomes greener, requiring a workforce with new skillsets.”

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.
