Citing the judging panel, STB said the 10 winning campaigns got chosen “for their strong potential to generate meaningful impact, and for showcasing different sides of Singapore that business and leisure travellers can explore.”

Each winning campaign will receive an award quantum of up to $550k, which includes an additional funding booster capped at $50k for cross-sector collaborations. The support will cover qualifying costs incurred by 31 December 2023.

The winning campaigns will be released in key source markets such as China, India, and Australia, with planned activation in Oceania and Southeast Asia to further entice potential tourists to visit Singapore.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
