Explore advanced manufacturing opportunities in Singapore
UK businesses in the advanced manufacturing sector are invited to participate in a new programme aimed at helping them expand into the Singaporean market.
Innovate UK’s Global Incubator Programme in Singapore offers small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) the chance to collaborate with local partners and explore growth opportunities in one of Asia’s most advanced manufacturing hubs.
The six-month programme, starting in March 2025, includes two visits to Singapore, where participants will receive targeted support to refine their market strategies, develop their innovations, and establish valuable connections. Innovate UK will cover travel, accommodation, and in-market expenses for one representative from each selected company, offering a low-risk route to international expansion.
The programme is designed for businesses developing technology that enables or improves processes and productivity. This includes technology across the following key themes
- materials for the future economy
- smart design
- resilient supply chains
- world-class production
- longer use and reuse of products and materials
Participants will benefit from tailored mentoring, workshops, and networking events, as well as access to shared facilities during their time in Singapore.
Applications are open until 20 January 2025.
Potential applicants can watch a recording of a previously held online briefing session to get more information.
