ITE and BDx sign Singapore AI data centre training pact

MoU targets the job pipeline across all three colleges.

The Institute of Technical Education and BDx Data Centers signed a memorandum of understanding to build a talent pipeline for Singapore’s digital infrastructure sector, with a focus on preparing students for AI and data centre roles.

The agreement covers all three ITE colleges and will provide students with hands-on training at BDx’s AI-ready SIN1 facility, which also hosts a quantum computing testbed.

The partners said the initiative supports Singapore’s Green Data Centre Roadmap and Smart Nation goals by addressing demand for workers who can operate infrastructure underpinning AI, financial systems, and other essential services.

BDx Chief Executive Officer Mayank Srivastava said the partnership would help build a pipeline of local talent to support mission-critical operations across AI and digital infrastructure, whilst ITE Chief Executive Officer Peter Lam said the collaboration would embed real-world data centre operating scenarios into teaching modules so students graduate with job-ready skills.

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.
