Google Cloud and Singapore’s Ministry of Communications (MCI) have shared plans to collaborate to bolster Singapore’s national artificial intelligence (AI) vision and strategy.
“We welcome the opportunity to work with Google Cloud as we develop our plans to support the growth of the digital economy, and realize the benefits that AI brings to our people and enterprises in a safe and responsible way,” said Andrea Phua, Director, Digital Economy Office, MCI.
Google Cloud’s next generation AI infrastructure is already available to the technology ecosystem in Singapore so AI can be implemented at scale.
Working together, Google Cloud and MCI will also look to:
- Accelerate the development of home-grown AI technologies
- Build a sustainable pipeline of talent for the future AI economy: Skilling initiatives to deepen AI capabilities and competencies
- Supercharge the adoption of cloud AI technologies in Singapore
- Root Singapore’s AI progress in Responsible AI
“We will create a vibrant AI ecosystem and thriving AI start-up economy, accelerate business transformation and innovation and develop the AI capabilities of Singapore’s workforce,” said Karan Bajwa, Vice President, Google Cloud Asia Pacific.
