AWS launches innovation hub in Singapore

AWS and Digital Industry Singapore also launched the AI Springboard initiative.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has opened its first 8,000-square-foot AWS Innovation Hub in Asia Pacific (APAC), located at the AWS corporate office in Singapore.

The facility offers stakeholders to interact with AWS, Amazon-wide technologies, and over 30 partner solutions across 50 real-world customer use cases for cloud technology. It aims to accelerate digital and artificial intelligence development, supplementing AWS's prior $11.5b (US$9b) cloud infrastructure investment in Singapore by 2028.

Each year, it will host over 1,000 C-suite leaders for cloud and gen AI innovation, alongside providing 200 Singaporean tertiary students an exclusive learning experience.

AWS and Digital Industry Singapore also launched the AI Springboard initiative to help 300 Singaporean enterprises scale AI across their operations within the next 12 months.

Qualifying enterprises can receive up to $600,000 in cloud credits and training, with $350,000 specifically from AI Springboard and more accessible via AWS support programs.

This comprehensive package complements the Singapore government's support of 70% of consultancy costs, capped at $105,000 per enterprise.

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.
