Bank of China (BOC) unveiled its first global fintech innovation lab in Singapore with the aim of showcasing latest technologies in AI, blockchain, big data and cloud technologies, according to a press release.

Housed in BOC Building, BOC Innovation Lab (Singapore) features a robotic customer service officer that is equipped with client identification and facial recognition capabilities.

The R&D and collaboration space is located at BOC Plaza in Middle Road.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
