Singapore, Germany collaborate for manufacturing and tech projects

This also marks the inaugural NRW-Singapore Open Innovation Call.

Enterprise Singapore signed a Joint Workplan Agreement with NRW Global Business, the trade and investment agency of the German state North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), to promote two-way collaborations between Singaporean and German companies in advanced manufacturing, green technologies, and ICT.

The collaboration between the two agencies will support internationalisation efforts between companies from the two countries and strengthen cooperation in innovation.

Eligible projects under the collaboration will receive funding and other assistance for their development. The first wave of projects would launch in the fourth quarter of this year.

They will also launch the inaugural NRW-Singapore Open Innovation Call to drive co-innovation between companies within Singapore and North Rhine-Westphalia.

Peter Ong, EnterpriseSG Chairman, said that with the collaboration, Singapore and German businesses could "develop new and innovative solutions to address demands in advanced manufacturing, green technologies, and ICT. This collaboration with NRW will enable German companies to collaborate with Singapore businesses beyond our respective markets to tap opportunities in Southeast Asia and the European Union."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
